1955 Map of South Trenton

About this map

Ninemile Creek and the Feeder Canal define the lower-lying terrain of this mid-century New York landscape, which bridges the gap between the urban edge of Utica and the rural hill country to the north. Elevated landmarks such as Marcy Hill, Bell Hill, and Smith Hill dominate the topography, providing a stark contrast to the emerging residential development at Deerfield Heights. This era shows the community's social infrastructure through landmarks like Broadacres Sanatorium and local centers of worship and education, including Salem Ch and several district schools such as School No 10.
