Seneca Lake serves as the focal point of this turn-of-the-century landscape, its shores lined with points such as Salt Pt. and Coal Pt. that hint at the region's industrial transport. The village of Watkins anchors the southern tip of the lake, where a complex network of rail lines converge. The presence of the Northern Central R.R., the Lehigh Valley R.R., and the Electric R.R. illustrates a period of intense rail development connecting lakeside settlements with the interior.
