About this map

The confluence of the Cohocton River and Tioga River forms the Chemung River at Painted Post, creating a distinctive river-and-valley landscape that has shaped the growth of Corning. This area is characterized by dense settlement along the valley floors, including the communities of Riverside, Gang Mills, and South Corning, all flanked by significant heights like Denmark Hill and Spencer Hill.

Genealogists and local historians will find many established burial sites preserved on this sheet, from the Hope Cem and Saint Marys Roman Catholic Cem in the city to the West Hill Cem and Goodsell Cem in more rural northern reaches. The presence of the Corning-Painted Post Airport and the sprawling residential networks illustrates the modern extent of these storied New York river towns, while routes like the Crystal Hills Branch Trl highlight the recreational use of the surrounding ridges.
