1895 Map of Ithaca

About this map

Ithaca anchors the northeastern corner of this 1890s landscape, positioned where Fall Creek and the southern tip of Cayuga Lake meet the steep topography of the Finger Lakes region. The Lehigh Valley R. R. follows the lake shore and cuts through the valley floors, providing a vital transportation artery through the townships of Ulysses, Enfield, and Newfield. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, evidenced by the presence of Buttermilk Falls and the secluded waters of Cayuta Lake to the west.
