- Description:
- A map showing the campus of Cornell University and campus transportation information in the year 1981. Roads and footpaths are depicted as light gray lines and vary widths in accordance with real-world measurements and are labelled with their name. Bus routes are traced along these streets with a black line and arrows indicating the direction of traffic. Stops along these routes are noted with circular symbols corresponding to the time of day the bus is active at that stop. Emergency blue light phone locations are marked on campus with a black asterisk. Cascadilla Creek and Fall Creek are traced on the southern and northern edges of central campus, respectively. Beebe Lake is similarly depicted to the northeast of the central campus. The creeks and other water features are shaded in gray a shade darker than the streets. The footprints of dozens of university buildings are shaded a dark gray, labelled with their name, and cluster primarily in the western portion of the map. The outlined footprints of dozens of fraternity houses and other residences are illustrated in the western and northern areas of campus and are labelled with their occupying fraternities. A cluster of university buildings relating to agriculture and veterinary medicine are grouped on the far eastern side of campus, separated from the main cluster of central campus by a long “Alumni Field.” Throughout the campus, parking lots are labelled with letters corresponding to a key of the parking regulations on the left side of the map. An additional inset in the top right corner, below the title, shows buildings and parking lots at the Cornell University Research Park. The extent of the map stretches past Jessup Road in the north to Mitchell Street in the south, and University Avenue in the west to the far eastern extent of Plantation Road in the east.
