1966 Map of Yankee Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Wanaksink Lake and Lake Louise Marie anchor a landscape of significant mid-century recreational and residential development in the southern Catskill region. This 1966 photogrammetric survey captures the area during a period of modernization, evidenced by the Filtration Plant and Sewage Disposal infrastructure near Rock Hill. To the southeast, the Delaware and Hudson Canal follows the base of the Shawangunk Mts, marking the historic transportation corridor through the Basher Kill valley. The map reveals a transition from the industrial legacy of the canal era to a mid-century leisure economy, centered around Mamakating Park and numerous named lakes like Wolf Lake and Mastens Lake. Local heritage sites, including Belle Terre Cem near Westbrookville, provide clear points of reference for genealogical and topographic research.
