1953 Map of Troy South

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Hudson River corridor serves as the industrial and transportation spine for this mid-century look at the Capital District, anchoring the cities of Troy, Watervliet, and Rensselaer. The landscape is defined by its deep-seated educational and military institutions, from the Watervliet Arsenal on the western bank to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Emma Willard College on the eastern heights. The map reveals the extensive rail infrastructure of the New York Central, Boston and Maine, and Delaware and Hudson lines as they navigate the river's edge and the surrounding hills.
