In 1787, a wealthy Philadelphia banker named William Bingham saw a vision for a new community at the confluence of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers.

It was left to Bingham’s land agent, Joshua Whitney, to forge ahead with the settlement’s streets, bridges, and courthouse.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wf2NW5K5vu8Funding provided by a grant from Empire State Development.
