1978 Map of Horseheads

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Horseheads and Elmira Heights serve as the primary hubs of development in this southern tier landscape, where the Conrail rail lines and modern highway infrastructure intersect. The transition from industrial corridors to residential neighborhoods is marked by a dense concentration of civic and spiritual institutions, including Our Saviours Ch and Oakwood Ch. The geography is defined by the northward flow of Catharine Creek and the eastern drainage of North Branch Newtown Creek through the gap near Bowman Hill. Local genealogy is well-supported by numerous documented burial grounds such as St Nicholas Cem and Maple Grove Cem. Further north, the landscape shifts toward rural terrain in Veteran and Catlin, showing the expansion of Gravel Pits and the Army and Navy Reserve Center near the valley floor.
