1950 Map of Putnam

About this map

Lake George and Lake Champlain define the eastern and western boundaries of this landscape, where the ridges of Spruce Mtn and Hogback Mtn rise between these two storied waterways. The terrain is marked by the narrow corridor of the Delaware and Hudson railroad as it skirts the western edge of Lake Champlain through The Narrows. This mid-century survey illustrates the rural infrastructure of Washington County, documenting the concentration of settlement at Putnam and the smaller depot at Putnam Sta. Local life is anchored by landmarks like Putnam Ch and the Swale Sch, while the lakefronts show a mix of recreation and transport, from the Arcady Country Club on Lake George to the landing at Chubbs Dock on the Champlain side. Along the shoreline, named points and bays such as Bluff Head and Red Rock Bay reveal the detailed coastal geography used by boaters and residents alike.
