About this map

The finger lakes region of Central New York is defined here by the parallel expanses of Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake, which dictate the transportation and settlement patterns of the early twentieth century. A robust Steamboat Route traverses the waters of Seneca Lake, connecting vital piers such as Lodi Landing and Lamoreaux Landing to the surrounding rail networks. On the western shore, the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. and the Northern Central R. R. converge near Himrod, while the eastern ridge is dominated by the Lehigh Valley R. R. and its Ithaca Branch. This transit-oriented landscape supported a diverse economy of milling and agriculture, evidenced by Cascade Mills and Mays Mill near the industrial hub of Dresden.
