About this map

Cornell University and Ithaca College anchor this landscape, surrounded by a network of established residential heights and rural valleys. The sheet details the complex collegiate infrastructure of the early 2010s, including Jim Butterfield Stadium and specialized agricultural sites like the Dilmun Hill Student Organic Farm and Cornell Orchards. Dramatic elevation changes are defined by the sharp cuts of Fall Creek and Cascadilla Creek, where numerous pedestrian crossings like the Thurston Avenue Bridge and the College Avenue Stone Arch Bridge connect the campus terrain.

Beyond the academic center, the map traces the residential evolution of Lansing, Cayuga Heights, and Renwick, stretching toward the Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport. The southeastern quadrant transitions into the rural reaches of Brooktondale and Ellis, where family-named burial grounds like Roe Cemetery and Quick Cemetery sit among high points such as Snyder Hill and Turkey Hill. The inclusion of local landmarks like the Six Mile Creek Vineyard and Ludgate Produce Farms highlights the region's agricultural character.
