2023 Map of West Ninemile Point

About this map

Lake Ontario dominates this 2023 survey of the shoreline along the boundary of Wayne and Cayuga counties. The landscape is characterized by its proximity to the water, with West Ninemile Point forming a distinct coastal feature at the mouth of Ninemile Creek. The residential character of this lakefront area is defined by narrow lanes and local thoroughfares like Ontario Shores Dr and Marsh Rd, which serve the lakeside community at Moon Beach. These roads provide a network for local access between small inland clearings and the lake's edge. The presence of Jensvold Rd and Williams Rd indicates a developed pattern of shoreline property ownership, contrasting with the open expanse of the Great Lake to the north. This study documents the contemporary topographic state of a specific segment of the New York lakefront, where drainage from the interior meets the vast aquatic horizon.
