In stock
This black and white, antique coastal survey was made for the United States Coast Survey. The surveys provide notes on important characteristics of the area mapped. The names of harbors, rivers, important coastal towns, and triangulation between points are identified on the map. These charts illustrate areas that have likely undergone significant changes due to modifications and recessions of coastal lands, making them fascinating to anyone interested in local geography and history. This coastal survey, produced in 1856, shows the progress of the survey in New York Bay and Hudson River from 1851 to 1856. There is also a sub-sketch of the Hudson River from Albany to New Baltimore.
