1937 Map of Binghamton East

USGS Topo · Published 1937

About this map

The Susquehanna River corridor dominates this 1937 landscape, serving as a primary transportation artery for three major railroads: the Erie, Delaware and Hudson, and the Lackawanna and Western. Along the riverbanks, small settlements and industrial points like Conklin Sta, Langdon, and Collier demonstrate the rail-dependent economy of the pre-war era. To the west, the sprawling State Hospital grounds mark the edge of Binghamton, while the surrounding hills of Kirkwood and Conklin are dotted with a dense network of local schoolhouses, including Acre Sch, School No 11, and Treadwell Sch. This survey provides a clear view of the rural-to-urban transition of Broome County before modern highway expansion, preserving the locations of family-named hollows like Stanley Hollow and Sherwood Hollow near the New York Pennsylvania state line.
