About this map

The Narrows serves as the central focal point of this 1966 survey, revised in 1981, which illustrates the complex coastal defenses and established neighborhoods of Richmond and Brooklyn. The map captures a period of significant urban density on Staten Island, tracing the Staten Island Rapid Transit line through communities like New Dorp, Grasmere, and Grant City. Coastal features are prominently detailed, from the residential enclave of Seagate on Coney Island to the sprawling Moravian Cemetery and the military grounds of Fort Wadsworth.
