2019 Map of Utica East

About this map

The Erie Canal and Mohawk River dominate the northern landscape of this map, tracing a historic transportation corridor through Deerfield and Utica. This 2019 survey documents the transition from the dense urban grid and industrial sites, such as the Masonic Home and Utica Sch of Commerce, into the elevated terrain of the Oneida Co and Herkimer Co border. South of the city, the topography rises sharply toward Pinnacle Hill and Dutch Hill, where the land is marked by small settlements like Norwich Corners and Frankfort Center. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds across these hills, including the Graffenburg Cem and Norwich Corners Cem. The area’s water management history is visible in a string of reservoirs, from Hopper Reservoir Number 2 to Graffenburg Reservoir, which supported the region's long-standing industrial and municipal growth.
