1902 Map of Geneva

About this map

Geneva, Waterloo, and Seneca Falls serve as the primary hubs of this Finger Lakes industrial and transit landscape at the turn of the century. The map highlights a dense infrastructure of movement, notably the Seneca Canal and the Seneca River, which weave between the major settlements. On the waters of Seneca Lake, a designated Steamboat Route connects the lakefront towns to southern landings. The rail network is particularly intricate here, featuring several major lines including the Pennsylvania Division and the Lehigh Valley R. R., alongside the Seneca Falls Branch and the Ithaca Branch. To the north, the landscape is dotted with smaller ponds like Vandemark Pond and Lowery Pond, while the southern interior is defined by agricultural hamlets such as West Fayette Mac Dougall, Rose Hill, and Kuneytown.
