2016 Map of Saugerties

About this map

Esopus Creek flows into the Hudson River at Saugerties, creating a distinctive riverfront geography marked by Washburns Point and Rock Island. This modern survey reveals a landscape where historical riverside settlements like Malden-on-Hudson and Glasco remain defined by their proximity to the water's edge and the surrounding hills of Mt Marion and Mt Airy. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, documenting a dense concentration of burial grounds including Saint Marys Cem, Trinity Cem, and Old Red-Madalin Church Cem. On the eastern shore, the academic influence of Bard College and the Unification Theological Seminary shapes the character of Annandale-on-Hudson and Barrytown. The terrain is characterized by numerous river features like Skillpot Island and Cruger Island, alongside the tidal dynamics of North Bay and South Bay, illustrating the enduring relationship between these Hudson Valley communities and the river.
