About this map

Irondequoit Bay and its complex shoreline dominate the eastern portion of this map, featuring distinct inlets like Big Massaug Cove and Helds Cove. This survey details the transition from the dense urban grid of Rochester to the residential character of Irondequoit and the lakeside communities of Sea Breeze and Rock Beach. The western edge is defined by the Genesee River, crossed by the Veterans Memorial Bridge.

Significant institutional presence is visible through the Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School and the Talmudical Institute of Upstate New York. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of numerous burial grounds, including the large Holy Sepulchre Cem and the culturally specific Saint Casimirs Polish Catholic Cem. Natural topography is highlighted by the elevation of Pinnacle Hill and Cobbs Hill, providing a clear look at the region's glacial landforms just south of Lake Ontario.
