USGS Topo · Published 1912About this map
The Genesee River serves as the central artery for this 1912 survey, cutting through the dense urban core of Rochester before reaching Lake Ontario at Charlotte. The landscape is a complex intersection of early 20th-century transportation, featuring the historic Erie Canal and the newly appearing Barge Canal under construction. To the south, the Genesee Valley Canal (Abandoned) traces a vanished route through Chili and Wheatland, illustrating the rapid evolution of New York's waterway infrastructure.
