1902 Map of Skaneateles

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Skaneateles Lake and its deep glacial valley dominate this late 19th-century landscape, serving as a vital transport corridor before the dominance of modern highways. The presence of the Steamboat Route connecting the village of Skaneateles to remote landings like Borodino Landing and Gregory Ldg. illustrates a time when the water was the primary highway for local commerce and travel. Along Skaneateles Creek, a string of industrial hamlets including Skaneateles Falls, Mottville, and Willow Glen shows how the lake's outflow powered early Finger Lakes manufacturing.
