KinkaidAlum Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry, I didn't realize it was my turn. So, here's a guess the city. This one is going to be tough since it's a large town rather than a big city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KinkaidAlum Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Wow. That was really fast, Sheeats! I am impressed. This was my college town. A once thriving Erie Canal city on North end of the middle finger (Seneca Lake) of the Finger Lakes. Here's a group of rowhomes on South Main St. I lived here my senior year. Here's an overhead shot showing the campus of Hobart and William Smith Colleges, downtown Geneva, and Seneca Lake Park. The South side of town is filled with old summer homes. Geneva was a big summer spot for rich industrialists back in the day. Here's the Belhurst Castle which is now a small luxury hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KinkaidAlum Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 I should have avoided using a named building! Sheeats, are you from around there? Geneva is located in Central New York. It's one hour West of Syracuse, 1 hour east of Rochester, and 45 minutes north of Ithaca. It's a beautiful region filled with farm land, vineyards, and of course, lakes. Winter is VERY long. It's cloudy with lake effect snow from early November until sometimes early May. If it is clear in the winter, it means it is very COLD. Here's the Bozzuto Boathouse, home to HWS Colleges' sailing team in the dead of winter. (finished #14 in the nation this year) Geneva City Hall The back gardens and pool of Geneva on the Lake, another former mansion turned luxury hotel Smith Hall, the original bldg for William Smith College (women's college started in 1908) Coxe Hall, the main bldg for Hobart College (men's college founded in 1822) The Hobart Quad in spring Side Show Bar in downtown. Ma and Pa ran this place and allowed students to run bar tabs. Best bar evaH. Rose Hill Mansion Pulteney Park Fountain, where downtown and the Colleges collide. HWS students love the dress the statue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
