1947 Map of St James

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The North Shore of Long Island is captured here in a moment of post-war transition, where established village life meets large-scale institutional presence. Dominating the western edge is the sprawling complex of the Kings Park State Hospital For The Insane, a massive facility that shaped the local economy and geography for decades. To the east, the settlement of St. James appears as a defined grid near Flower Field, while the meandering Nissequogue River and Stony Brook Harbor create a complex coastline of tidal marshes and inlets.
