Description

Depew, N.Y.

Reproduction bird's-eye view map of Depew, New York, published by Matthews-Northrup Co. in 1898. Settled in the 1800's, the village of Depew brought two towns, Lancaster and Cheektowaga, together as one when railroad man Chauncey Depew established the area between them as an important railroad hub on the lines between Chicago and New York. The towns became one when in 1894 Depew was incorporated as a village, just four years before this map was published. The railroad industry boomed in Depew in the late 1800's as one manufacturer after another moved to the area including the National Car Wheel Works, the Gould Coupler Works, the Union Car Co. and American Brass Co. The New York Central shops built here by Depew and his investors employed a thousand people by 1898.

This beautifully colored panoramic map from 1898 includes buildings, railroad routes and clearly labeled street names.
