About the Item
Antique Map of Southeastern New York – Rand McNally, circa 1888
This antique map of southeastern New York was published by Rand, McNally
Co. around 1888. It offers a detailed depiction of the Hudson River Valley, the Catskills, Albany, and the greater New York metropolitan area, drawn at a time of rapid industrial and urban expansion.
The map highlights counties including Albany, Rensselaer, Greene, Ulster, Dutchess, Orange, Rockland, and Westchester, extending southward to Long Island and the approaches to New York Harbor. Important towns and cities such as Albany, Poughkeepsie, Kingston, and Newburgh are clearly marked, while the railroads connecting them to New York City are traced in red and blue.
A particularly attractive feature is the inset of New York City and Brooklyn, showing the detailed street grid, ferry routes, and the rapidly expanding urban area. This makes the map valuable both as a record of southeastern New York and as a snapshot of Manhattan and Brooklyn before the consolidation of Greater New York in 1898.
The Hudson River is finely engraved, dominating the map as a historic transportation artery. The Catskill Mountains are depicted with careful hachures, reflecting the growing popularity of the region as a resort destination in the late 19th century.
This map stands as a historically significant and decorative plate, combining the political and industrial heart of New York State with the metropolitan influence of New York City. Collectors of New York history, Hudson Valley ephemera, or urban cartography will find this piece especially appealing.
