About this map

The industrial and transport corridors of Upstate New York define this mid-century landscape, anchored by the metropolitan hubs of Rochester and Syracuse. Following the southern shore of Lake Ontario, the map illustrates a complex network of moving goods and people, from the historic Erie Canal and the massive rail lines of the New York Central and Lehigh Valley to the modern New York State Thruway. These arteries connect smaller manufacturing and canal towns like Newark, Lyons, and Oswego.
