1949 Map of Ithaca West

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Cayuga Lake and its dramatic western shoreline dominate this late-1940s topography, revealing a landscape defined by deep gorges and early aviation history. The area west of Ithaca is marked by the sharp relief of Coy Glen and the Inlet, where the Lehigh Valley and Delaware Lackawanna and Western railroads converge near the southern tip of the lake. To the north, the Ithaca Municipal Airport and Sun Downs Airport sit near the shore, reflecting a mid-century period of regional flight expansion.
