Historic Map : Beers Map of Northern Brookhaven, Long Island, New York, 1873, Vintage Wall Art

A scarce example of Fredrick W. Beers' map of the northern part of Brookhaven, Long Island, New York. Published in 1873. Covers roughly from Smithtown Bay and Cranes Neck eastward as far as Manorville and Wading River. Shows the Smithtown and Jefferson Railroad as well as proposed extensions of the Long Island Railroad heading eastward. Detailed to the level of individual buildings and properties with land holders noted. This is probably the finest atlas map of northern Brookhaven, Long Island, to appear in the 19th century. Prepared by Beers, Comstock & Cline out of their office at 36 Vesey Street, New York City, for inclusion in the first published atlas of Long Island, the 1873 issue of Atlas of Long Island, New York.
