1901 Map of West Point

USGS Topo · Published 1903

About this map

West Point stands as the central landmark in this 1890s survey, overlooking a strategically vital stretch of the Hudson River where the West Shore Railroad and the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad parallel the water. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Hudson Highlands, including Storm King, Anthony's Nose, and Dunderberg. To the east, the map reveals the industrial and agricultural interior of Putnam and Westchester Counties, where the Mahopac Mines and the Mahopac Mines Branch indicate the region's mineral importance.
