Re‐creating the Historical Topography of Manhattan IslandFootnote^*
* Research was supported by the Environmental Protection Agency's Science to Achieve Results (star) Graduate Fellowship. I would like to thank Port Authority facility surveyor Scott Zelenak for offering suggestions on determining the elevation datum of the Randel Farm Maps. I would also like to thank my advisor, James McCarthy, as well as David O'Sullivan, for providing useful suggestions on earlier drafts of this note. In addition, I appreciate the comments of various anonymous reviewers from the gis community. 1 am also grateful to former consulting engineer Eric Cardwell and policy analyst Laura Engler, at the Manhattan Borough President's Office, for providing me with access to the Randel Farm Maps. Lastly, I would like to acknowledge my former advisor, Andrew Sluyter, for guiding me through the initial stages of this research project.
