About this map

The New York Central Railroad corridor dominates the central landscape of this 1938 survey, anchoring the industrial and residential growth of East Syracuse and the neighborhood of Eastwood. The map captures the complex water and transportation networks east of the city, where the Barge Canal and Butternut Creek intersect near Cedar Bay. To the south, the terrain rises sharply toward Pebble Hill and the protected grounds of Clark Reservation, providing a clear contrast between the dense urban grid of Syracuse and the more open village layouts of Fayetteville and De Witt. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific community landmarks such as the Orphans Home and St Marks Cemetery, alongside numerous numbered rural schools like School No 10 and School No 1 that served the outlying farming districts.
