The map
About this Rome map poster
Rome sits in Oneida County in central New York, on the low ground between the Mohawk River and Wood Creek. That location made it an important portage between the Hudson and the Great Lakes long before the city existed. On a map the streets form a broad grid across the flat valley, and the Erie Canal, the Mohawk and the rail lines draw long lines through and around it.
Construction of the Erie Canal began here on 4 July 1817, and a reconstructed Fort Stanwix, now a national monument, stands in the middle of downtown. Rome was later known as the Copper City for its copper and brass mills. The former Griffiss Air Force Base, now a business park, occupies a large area on the east side of the city.
A Rome map poster shows these layers of history in a single image: the fort, the canal, the grid of an industrial city and the long runway of the former base. It suits people who grew up in the Mohawk Valley, history enthusiasts, and anyone who has followed the Erie Canal on foot or by bike.

Erie Canal
The canal whose construction began here in 1817 passes through the city. It runs as a long line alongside the Mohawk River across the valley.
Griffiss runway
The former air base on the east side still has its long runway, a strong straight line that contrasts with the residential grid.
