About this map

Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake anchor this turn-of-the-century topographic landscape, where the Finger Lakes region transitions from steep glaciated valleys to the industrial hubs of the Southern Tier. The map documents a dense network of early transportation, featuring the Steerboat Route on the deep waters of Seneca Lake and several competing rail lines, including the Lehigh Valley RR and the Northern Central RR, which were critical for the era's commerce.
