New York State πŸ“

New York is a state in the Northeastern region of the United States. New York is the 27th-most extensive, the 3rd-most populous, and the 7th-most densely populated of the 50 United States. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south, and by Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border with Rhode Island east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Ontario to the west and north, and Quebec to the north. The state of New York is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City.

Thruway’s 1952 Ramps to New Scotland and Delaware Avenue

Originally when the NYS Thruway was built through Albany, they acquired land and graded ramps to New Scotland and Delaware Avenue. I don't know if this was originally part of a local highway, but the ramps have long been removed and replaced with housing and other buildings and are no longer owned by the Thruway Authority. Aerial photography on the left is from 1952.

Crossgates Commons

The Capital Region Urbanist group was discussing Crossgates Commons and the historic Rapp Road community and I thought I needed a quick map of it. Contemporary Albany County Tax Map overlaid.
