Description

Freeport, L.I., 1925, N.Y. Drawn by R. Cinquin.

Reproduction bird's-eye view map of Freeport, New York, drawn by Rene Cinquin and published by Metropolitan Aero-View Co. in 1925. The village of Freeport, a popular tourist and sportsmens' destination, lies along the south shore of Long Island. The map's town "booster" statement from 1925 reads:

 "Freeport occupies the unique position of being the largest incorporated Village in the greatest State in the Union. Being only about thirty minutes by train from "Broadway, New York", it has all the suburban attractions with many urban advantages.

  It was settled about 1650. Before that time it was populated by the Meroke Indians and relics and legends of those early days still abound. It was once known as Raynortown, because the Raynors predominated, but about the time of Civil War it received the name Freeport, which name it is said to have received because it could be reached from the Atlantic Ocean through Jones Inlet.

  Its educational growth and facilities have kept pace with its rapidly growing population, now about 20,000. It has 64 trains daily and over 2500 commuters, 5 public schools including a fine high school, three active banks with resources of over $7,000,000, eleven churches, thirteen of the leading fraternal societies, two yacht clubs, ten social clubs, two bus lines and trolleys to the city.

  Freeport has its own Municipal Water and Light Plant and has a splendid Public Memorial Library, a fine Fire and Police Department and other civic requirements.

  It is the home of the famous Light Club and many other places of entertainment. With the well-known Great South Bay, and its different inland water-ways, it affords unusual boating, fishing and bathing advantages.

  It has long been recognized as an ideal all-the-year round place for those engaged in New York City to have their homes and bring up their families. As a result also those investing in homes there have materially increased their material wealth at the same time that they have enjoyed the uplift and inspiration of living in an ideal community."
