1956 Map of Willsboro

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Boquet River meanders toward Lake Champlain in this mid-century survey of the New York-Vermont borderlands. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the elevated peaks of Adirondack State Park, including Rattlesnake Mtn and Sugarloaf Mtn, to the fertile lowlands and bays of the shoreline. Settlement patterns follow the transportation corridors of the Delaware and Hudson railroad on the New York side and the Rutland line in Vermont. Cultural landmarks such as the Lady of Hope Shrine near Essex and the Whallon Bay Sch reflect the established rural communities of the 1950s. The map details a maritime geography of points and coves, from Willsboro Point to the small islands of The Four Brothers, illustrating the interconnectedness of lakefront villages like Charlotte and Willsboro.
