About this map

The Susquehanna River and Chenango River converge near the heart of this urban and rural landscape, defining the industrial and civic development of the region. Local infrastructure is highlighted by the Binghamton Water Works and the Johnson City Water Works, while the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks follow the river's path, serving the riverside settlements of Westover and Sunrise Terrace. Historically significant burial grounds, including Floral Park Cem, Glenwood Cem, and Spring Forest Cem, are densely clustered near the riverbank, providing a wealth of information for genealogical research.

Rising above the river valley, the terrain shifts into the higher elevations of Bunn Hill, Ingraham Hill, and Summit Hill. This southern portion of the map reveals a transition to agriculture and small-scale aviation at Luke Airport. Features like Lone Maple Farm and Fiatos Orchard reflect the area's continued rural character even as residential expansion reaches into Park Terrace and Willow Point.
