Panoramic maps were widely popular during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and served as marketing materials to attract residents and merchants alike.

Located on the western banks of the Hudson River, Kingston?s rich history dates back to the Colonial era, and it was the first State Capital of New York. The geographic location made it a transportation hub for coal mined in Pennsylvania that traveled down the river to markets in New York City, some ninety-one miles to the South. The city was burned by British Troops following the Battles of Saratoga. This depiction shows Kingston in a period of significant prosperity in the decade following the American Civil War.
