1905 Map of Nineveh

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a deep, winding path through Broome County, serving as the primary corridor for both early commerce and industrial transport. At the start of the 20th century, this region was a critical node in the Northeast rail network, anchored by the Delaware and Hudson RR and the Susquehanna Division. The topography is defined by steep, serrated hills rising from the valley floor, where small hamlets like Harpursville and Center Village cling to the riverbanks. To the west, the village of Tunnel signifies the engineering efforts required to navigate this landscape. The map also captures several upland ponds and springs, such as Vallonia Springs and Pickerel Pond, which provided reliable water sources for the rural agricultural communities and early summer resorts dotting the heights above the river. Near the southern border, the terrain reaches toward Mt. Carmel, eventually meeting the State Line with Pennsylvania.
