1968 Map of Binghamton East

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Susquehanna River snakes through the heart of this Broome County landscape, dictating the development of transport and settlement in the late 1960s. Along its eastern bank, the Erie-Lackawanna railroad tracks parallel the water, connecting a string of valley communities from Fivemile Point down to Riverside. On the northern edge, the expansive grounds of the State Hospital overlook the bend in the river near Binghamton, while educational and religious anchors like Susquehanna Valley High Sch and St Marys Ch serve the growing residential clusters. The terrain rises sharply away from the river into the wooded uplands of Conklin and Kirkwood, where family-named roads like Edwards Rd and Carlin Road wind past numerous small quarries and the quiet flow of Carlin Creek. This survey captures the transition from the industrial valley floor to the rural ridges before the further expansion of suburban infrastructure.
