About this map

The industrial and transport core of eastern New York is documented here during the late nineteenth century, centered on the strategic confluence of the Mohawk River and the Erie Canal. At Schenectady, a dense rail network including the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad and the West Shore Railroad converges, illustrating the city's role as a major manufacturing and transit hub. North of the river, the landscape transitions into the agricultural and resort lands of Saratoga County.
