2019 Map of Cicero

About this map

Oneida Lake dominates the northern reaches of this territory, where the shoreline is defined by a sequence of points and bays including Toad Harbor and Muskrat Bay. The landscape transitions from the open waters and islands like Frenchman Island into the significant wetlands of the Cicero Swamp, which stretches across the southern half of the map. This area preserves traces of earlier infrastructure, most notably the route of an Electric Railway that once connected these lakeside communities. The map provides a detailed view of the growing suburbs of North Syracuse and Cicero, contrasted with the smaller lakeside clusters at Kraus Landing and Valentines Beach. Family and community history is anchored by numerous small burial grounds, such as Terpenning Cem and the Cicero Center Cem, which remain as markers of the area's long-standing rural settlements.
