1954 Map of Waverly

About this map

Waverly anchors the southern edge of this mid-century survey where the Chemung River meets the Pennsylvania border. The village is a dense rail hub, defined by the convergence of the Lehigh Valley and Erie RR lines, which cut through the landscape alongside an abandoned canal segment. To the north, the terrain rises into the hills of Baldwin and Barton, characterized by a network of rural schoolhouses and churches that served isolated farming communities.
