USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The industrial and suburban expansion of eastern Syracuse is evident in this late-1930s survey, showing a landscape defined by massive rail infrastructure and evolving transit corridors. The New York Central railroad dominates the geography east of Eastwood, featuring extensive yards that fueled the region's economy. Concurrent with this heavy industry, the map captures established community landmarks like the Orphans Home and St Marys Cemetery, alongside the emerging residential character of East Syracuse and Fayetteville.
