1943 Map of Unadilla

About this map

The Susquehanna River flows through the heart of this valley landscape, serving as the border between Otsego and Delaware Counties. This mid-century survey captures the village of Unadilla at a point when rail transit still defined the local economy, with the Delaware and Hudson railroad tracking the riverbank. South of the water, the terrain rises into prominent peaks such as Poplar Hill and Vandervort Hill, while small rural communities like South Unadilla and Youngs are connected by the winding routes of the New York Ontario and Western line.
