Description

Binghamton, NY / L.R. Burleigh del. ; J. Lyth eng.

Reproduction panorama map of Binghamton, New York, drawn and published by Lucien R. Burleigh in 1882. Binghamton, located at the confluence of the Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers, was named for landowner William Bingham and incorporated as a village in 1834. As the railroads grew, Binghamton became a major crossroads and many factories were established. Binghamton was designated a city in 1867.

The community was known for the manufacture of shoes and came to be known as "Parlor City" because of its tidy streets and attractive homes which included several mansions. In 1864, the New York State Inebriate Asylum was completed in Binghamton. The building, designed by Isaac Perry, was soon changed to a hospital for the mentally ill, but would employ many of Binghamton's citizens for years.

The map from 1882 includes clearly labeled street names showing railroad traffic. The map has suffered extensive damage over time, as is evident in the image provided here.
