About this map

Cornell University anchors the western edge of this mid-century survey, its campus situated between the dramatic gorges carved by Fall Creek and Cascadilla Creek. The city of Ithaca transitions into the steep terrain of Ithaca Hill and Snyder Hill, where the landscape is defined by the deep valley of Sixmile Creek and the Ithaca Reservoir. This era captures a mix of academic expansion and traditional rural life, with numerous numbered schoolhouses like School No 18 and School No 10 serving the outlying communities of Varna and Etna.
