2013 Map of Rotterdam Junction

About this map

Rotterdam Junction serves as the focal point for this landscape along the Mohawk River, where modern transportation corridors follow the natural path carved by old waterways. The terrain rises from the river valley toward West Hill, bisected by numerous kills and brooks including Plotter Kill, Sandsea Kill, and Poentic Kill. Local heritage is preserved in a high density of burial grounds, ranging from the Princetown Reformed Church Cem near Gifford to the Van Slyck Cem and Ferguson Cem. Small settlements like Rynex Corners, Rectors, and Wyatts are interconnected by a network of rural roads such as Reynolds Rd and Scotch Ridge Rd. This 2013 survey illustrates the continued importance of regional infrastructure, featuring the Mohawk Valley Airport and the expansive Briar Creek Golf Course, while documenting recreational waters at Duane Lake and Maria Lake.
