2019 Map of Sayre

About this map

Tioga Point marks the convergence of the Chemung River and the Susquehanna River, a landform that has historically dictated the settlement patterns of this border region between New York and Pennsylvania. The river valley is densely occupied by the contiguous communities of Sayre, South Waverly, and Athens, while the surrounding terrain features landmarks like the prominent Spanish Hill and the Queen Esther Flats. This 2019 survey documents a landscape where modern industry at the Gateway Industrial Park Rd sits alongside numerous historic burial grounds, including the Old Athens Cem and the Church of the Redeemer Columbarium. The network of small waterways, such as Tutelow Cr, Wolcott Cr, and Satterlee Cr, drain the high ground into the Sheshequin Valley, reflecting a geography that continues to support a mix of residential centers and rural uplands.
