1895 Map of Elmira

About this map

Elmira and its surrounding townships in Chemung County define this late 19th-century landscape, appearing here as a significant rail and river hub. The Chemung River cuts through the center of the sheet, flanked by the steep elevations of Mount Zoar and Hawley Hill. The density of the street grid in the city contrasts with the dispersed rural settlements like Sullivanville and Pine City, reflecting the period's regional growth patterns.
