1930 Map of Schenectady

About this map

The Mohawk River corridor anchors this 1930s landscape, illustrating a dense network of water, rail, and early aviation transit. The city is flanked by extensive burial grounds including Vale Cemetery and Parkview Cemetery, while the path of the Erie Canal (Abandoned) traces the river's edge alongside active tracks of the New York Central and West Shore railroads. This era shows the region's transition into the mid-century, with a dedicated Airport established north of the river near Rexford.
