Our Hometown: Geneva NY

Geneva on the lake!

Geneva NY with its setting on beautiful Seneca Lake in the heart of central New York, the City of Geneva offers residents and visitors alike the opportunity to walk, bike, or simply sit to enjoy lake views that truly inspire.

You'll observe a downtown dedicated to its past with amenities for the present. Take the time to sit in a rare and historic "atmospheric opera house" for a unique experience, whether an off-Broadway show, a concert, or a current movie on one of the largest screens you'll find anywhere. Visit the splendid shops for fresh flowers, unusual gifts, antiques, and local memorabilia. Enjoy a unique eating experience in a comfortable restaurant, or outdoors at any of several sidewalk cafes. Stay at our spectacular lakefront hotel, with facilities and services for two or 200. The City of Geneva is also central to the exciting Finger Lakes wine country, rivaling California for quality and award-winning wines.

Steeped in the past with ties to the Erie Canal and glass manufacturing, there's a wealth of wonders for history buffs. The historic district containing rowhouses and a first-class museum offers plenty to peruse. Walk through an historic home preserved for posterity. Browse diverse exhibits for a window to the past. Learn about glass, important in the past and a key industry in Geneva today. Read about Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman doctor in the United States, educated right here at Geneva Medical College. Now internationally known as Hobart and William Smith Colleges, it offers an outstanding liberal arts education.

Glance beyond the facades of wonderful old buildings and vital businesses and realize that Geneva has a committed populace that understands the need to preserve its past while building for its future. A dedicated City staff has created an inviting cityscape with brick-paved side- and crosswalks, enchanting old light fixtures, and clean streets. The lakefront bursts with Downtown trails, boat launches, and, oh, those views!! There are even great places to fish and Seneca Lake is well-known for its prize-winning trout. The lakefront is alive with the present and awaiting future excitement, including a tour boat, equipment rentals, and more festivals.

Geneva, with its nearly 14,000 residents, is equidistant from Rochester, Syracuse, and Ithaca, and offers opportunities not often found in a city its size. City government is progressive in its offerings of a full range of services and programs, supporting business, revitalization, and new development. With generous housing rehabilitation and homeownership programs, there's an exciting new spirit of community and improved neighborhoods. A well-capitalized loan fund and an active industrial development agency offer potential new and expanding businesses the help they need to succeed.

And Geneva has big business-Guardian Industries-a worldwide glass manufacturer; Zotos-the number three haircare products manufacturer in the world; CCN-internationally known for its high-end office furniture; and more. With a shovel-ready industrial park and a bustling incubator facility offering flexible space, there's a place for everything and the help to get it there. A soon-to-be-realized agriculture and food technology research park at Geneva will offer land and space, and a valuable connection to Cornell University's Agricultural Experiment Station.

On top of all this, Geneva's location at the tip of beautiful Seneca Lake makes it an excellent origination point for the many wondrous attractions, educational opportunities, and fun-time destinations located throughout the Finger Lakes region---truly the Gateway to the Finger Lakes.

Whether a resident or a visitor, join those who already recognize the City of Geneva as a great place to live; to relax; to shop; to sample food and wine; to exercise the body and mind; to build a successful business. Where better to do all this than in a friendly lakefront city ready to welcome you!
