My Ithaca Favorites from Flickr
Thought I'd post some of my favorite Ithaca photos from Flickr members. There is no particular order, and they are from over the last ten years up to present. I'll only post one or two at a time (should over a year). These folks take better and more interesting pics than I can. Hope you will enjoy.

Looking at Cornell's McGraw Tower at the end of Ho Plaza, for decades the tallest building in the Ithaca area.

A beautiful setting for a city.
I find the abandoned Cornell Hydraulics Lab, built in 1898, a very interesting subject: https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/40/849...c4a26f55_o.jpg Sadly, it's not there anymore (collapsed a few years ago). http://opacity.us/ephemera/post/cornells_hydraulic_lab Quote:
http://static1.opacity.us/images/pos...0/beebe/pc.jpg Credit That image (above) allows us to see the water rushing out of the building, which contained a massive pipe. Construction began in Spring 1896 and it was completed in 1898. http://cdsun.library.cornell.edu/cgi...xt-txIN------# Quote:

It was quite a shock when I visited a few years back and saw it was gone. Another bit of history gone.
