2016 Map of Troy South

About this map

The Hudson River serves as the central artery for this urban corridor, dividing the industrial and residential centers of Troy and Watervliet. This geography is defined by a dense concentration of civic and educational institutions, including the campus of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the Russell Sage Coll. Numerous bridges, such as the Congress Street Bridge and Patroon Island Bridge, facilitate the flow of traffic between the river banks, while smaller waterways like Poesten Kill and Wynants Kill cut through the eastern hills, historical sites of early milling and power generation.
