CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY WATERWAYS PAST AND PRESENT. By Ernest D. Leet Presented Bt_Meeting of Chautauqua County Historical Society, Inc., April 14, 1962. Nestled among the gently rolling hills of Chautauqua County lie six lakes 'lorthernmost which are the very/l'lIKKIoHM""ll'ltCOPYRIGHT headwaters of the Ohio valley Drainage Basin. The largest of these is Chautauqua Lake, from which the County and Chautauqua Institution derive the ir names. Our ChautauquaCHAUTAUQUALake muskallunge are called ''Muskallunge Ohiens is". Cassadaga and Bear Lake, in the Town of Stockton, are relatively smaller. Mud Lake and East Mud Lake in the Town of Villenova are the sources of the Conewango River, and COUNTY Findley Lake in the western edge of the County flows into the west branch of French Creek and finally into the Allegheny at Franklin,HISTORICALbelow Oil City. The highest of these lakes is Findley Lake on our western border with a Sea Level Elevation of 1420; West Mud Lake and East Mud Lake are 1369' and 1342' respectively; Chautauqua 1308; SOCIETY and Cassadaga and Bear Lake about 1303'. At least four plans have been proposed over the WESTFIELD,years to reverse the flow of various of these Aakes and empty them into Lake Erie. In 18 a few individuals dug a ditch almost overnight which would have emptied Cassadaga Lake intoNY the canadaway I 2012 Creek if they had not been stopped by irate citizens affected and by injunction. (see , History of Chautauqua County & Its People 1921 Vol. 1, page 2.) In 1934 an Army Engineer'~ plan proposed the draining of Findley Lake, the French Creek and the Big Brokenstraw into Lake Erie, as a part of the French Creek Diversion Plan, w~th a possible power development at Freeport. -

NY5 Bus Rapid Transit Conceptual Design Study
NY5 Bus Rapid Transit Conceptual Design Study Executive Summary Washington Broadway Veeder/Nott Steuben McClellan N. Robinson Lawnwood Balltown New Karner Village of Colonie Colonie Center Colvin N. Allen N. Manning Quail Lexington Lark S. Swan Pearl SUNY NewNew YorkYork StateState RouteRoute 55 OverviewOverview For over a century, New York State Route 5 has been one of the main travel corridors in the Capital District. Anchored by the two cities of Albany and Schenectady, the arrow-straight route running 16.5 miles from northwest to southeast has served bicyclists, pedestrians, horsecars, streetcars, automobiles, buses, and trucks. In the post-war era, the character of NY 5 changed, reflecting shifts in employment, land use, transportation modes, and lifestyles. While still a critical transit corridor, with about 10,000 riders per day on CDTA’s buses, most of the roadway is dominated by automobiles, whether in terms of traffic flow, pavement space, or automobile-related land use, making the corridor less attractive Downtown Schenectady - NY5 at Broadway to a more diverse set of uses. Retail redevelopment has occurred in certain places in the corridor, such as at Colonie Center, but other segments of the corridor have lagged economically and need revitalization.
