1969 Map of Ithaca West

About this map

Ithaca sits at the southern tip of Cayuga Lake, where the Inlet and Fall Creek meet the water at Stewart Park. In the late 1960s, the city's western edge is defined by the steep grades of Cliff Park and the winding course of Cascadilla Creek. The landscape transitions from the urban core at Buffalo St and State St to a series of rural hamlets marked by family names, including Whipple Corner, Kennedy Corner, and Applegate Corner. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits and the Lehigh Valley railroad tracks through the valley floor reflects the era's local industry.
