2019 Map of Oneonta

About this map

Oneonta serves as the focal point of this regional study, situated where the Susquehanna River meets the Charlotte Valley. The city's identity as an educational hub is clearly defined by the sprawling campuses of SUNY College at Oneonta and Hartwick College, which dominate the northern hillsides. The landscape transitions from the urban grid of Main ST and Chestnut ST to the steep slopes of Franklin Mtn and Winnie Hill. Beyond the city limits, the map documents a series of smaller communities including West Oneonta, West End, and Emmons. Local history is preserved in numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Oneonta Plains Cem, Riverside Cem, and the high-elevation Ouleout Cem. The intersection of modern infrastructure and natural waterways is evident as I-88 parallels the river, carving through a terrain marked by prominent peaks like Chamberlain Hill and Jackson Hill.
