1944 Map of State Line

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The New York Massachusetts state line cuts through this high-elevation terrain, where the Berkshires meet the Taconic Mountains. In the mid-1940s, the industrial legacy of the region is still visible at Richmond Furnace and Williamsville, while the Boston and Albany railroad navigates the steep grades near State Line. Educational outposts like Red Rock Sch and Fog Hill Sch serve isolated rural pockets amidst a landscape of prominent peaks, including Harvey Mtn and Tom Ball Mtn. The transport network is defined by early crossings such as Austerlitz Rd. and West Stockbridge Rd., providing a detailed view of the corridor between Columbia County and Berkshire County before the full impact of mid-century highway expansion.
