1950 Map of Montour Falls

About this map

Montour Falls sits at the southern tip of Seneca Lake, where the Barge Canal begins its journey through the low-lying Bad Indian Swamp. The landscape is defined by dramatic elevation changes, evidenced by the proximity of Aunt Sarahs Falls and Shequaga Falls to the town center. This mid-century survey captures the region's complex transportation network, featuring the Pennsylvania RR and Lehigh Valley RR as they navigate the steep ravines of Havana Glen and Mitchell Hollow.
