The date is unknown, but likely ca. 1919-1921. Panoramic maps are depictions of cities or landscape seen from an oblique elevated angle. The maps in this collection (images NYSA_14297-87_606 to 623) provide 360 degree views of the landscape surrounding the towers out to a distance of about twenty miles. This image was created to record the forest fire-related activities of the New York State Conservation Commission.
