About this Plainview map poster
Plainview is a hamlet in the Town of Oyster Bay in Nassau County, on Long Island in New York. Once largely farmland, it was transformed after the Second World War into a residential suburb, and its street plan reflects that era. From above, it is a mesh of looping lanes, cul-de-sacs and gently curving roads, with schools and parks set within the neighbourhoods.
Major roads define the area's edges and structure. The Long Island Expressway and the Northern State Parkway cross through the region, their wide sweeping lines standing out against the finer residential pattern. Commercial strips run along the main arterial roads, while the interior streets stay quiet and residential.
A Plainview map poster captures a classic postwar suburban form: small curving streets filling the space between bold highways. It is a surprisingly graphic composition, and in black and white the contrast between the fine residential lines and the heavy roadways becomes the main subject of the print.

Expressway corridor
The Long Island Expressway cuts across the area as a wide, confident line, with interchanges adding bold shapes to the composition.
Parks and school grounds
Open spaces for schools, parks and sports fields appear as light patches within the dense residential mesh, breaking up the pattern at regular intervals.
