1895 Map of Elmira

About this map

Elmira serves as the dominant rail and industrial hub of Chemung County in this late-nineteenth-century survey, revealing a dense grid of streets along the Chemung River. The landscape is a complex intersection of major transit corridors, including the Delaware Lackawanna and Western R. R. and the Northern Central R. R. which converge near Horseheads. These railroads trace the valleys, leaving the surrounding highlands like Mount Zoar and Beers Hill to small agricultural hamlets.
