Re: Putnam question

But again, why bother when so few people lived closer to that line than to the Harlem or Hudson lines.

I used to have a Hagstrom's 1960 atlas of Westchester (which I have sadly lost). They showed individual property owners' names north of the Cross-Westchester Expressway, and that didn't clutter up the map.

More than a couple of miles north of the expressway, there were real towns along the Hudson (Tarrytown, Ossining, Croton, Peekskill) and little villages along the Saw Mill Parkway. The rest was almost all large land tracts. Most of northern Westchester was like Pocantico Hills.
