1901 Map of Watkins

USGS Topo · Published 1923

About this map

Seneca Lake serves as the central corridor for commerce and transport in this region at the turn of the century, with a designated Steamboat Route connecting points like Glenora and Cottage Pt. to the southern hub of Watkins. The landscape is defined by the steep glens and falls carved into the lakeside bluffs, most notably at Hector Falls and Excelsior Glen. The village of Watkins sits at the foot of the lake, where the Northern Central R. R. and the Chemung County Electric R. R. converge, facilitating the movement of goods and passengers through the marshlands leading to Montour Falls.
