1947 Map of Wappinger Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Hudson River serves as the central artery for this mid-century topographic portrait of Dutchess County, where industrial riverfronts meet rising highlands. To the south, the city of Beacon is depicted at a time when the Matteawan State Hospital and the US Veterans Hospital at Castle Point were prominent local institutions. The river itself is a focal point of commerce and navigation, marked by the Danskammer Light and the heavy rail traffic of the New York Central along its eastern bank.
