Tour Overview
Heritage Tourism
A short, pretty walk through town that takes you past some of Ithaca's architectural gems.
Much of the information in this tour comes from previous publications of Historic Ithaca and The History Center in Tompkins County. A resource to supplement this tour of Ithaca's downtown buildings is the 1982 book "Ithaca and Its Past: The History and Architecture of the Downtown," available online through the Tompkins County Public Library.
