1902 Map of Saranac

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Saranac Lake serves as the focal point of this Adirondack region at the turn of the century, where the arrival of rail infrastructure began to transform local industry and tourism. The map illustrates a dense network of water bodies, including Lower Saranac Lake and Rainbow Lake, connected by the early operations of the Adirondack Division and the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. These lines facilitated the growth of logging and resort communities like Paul Smiths and Bloomingdale.
