1957 Map of Wading River

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Wading River and the northern shoreline of Long Island Sound characterize this mid-century Long Island landscape. The survey documents a transition from the agricultural roots of Manorville and Baiting Hollow toward significant institutional and industrial development. Large-scale land use is dominated by the Brookhaven National Laboratory US Reservation and the extensive Grumman Airport, while the coast is dotted with seasonal destinations like Wildwood State Park and various youth camps, including Camp Wauwepex and Camp Baiting Hollow.
