A Stunning Find

After living here since 1986 I discovered this Cayuga Heights park on a warm early September day, 2023.

Looking across Cayuga Lake, not visible in the valley, to West Hill.

Plaque inscription: “Here may you too find the love of beauty, goodness, truth. This was the wish of Jane and Jared Newman when they presented Sunset Park to the village of Cayuga Heights in January of 1938.”

Rest on a limestone bench beneath a mature oak tree.

View across Ithaca towards West Hill and, in the far distance, Connecticut Hill.
