New York State Route 393 (NY 393) was an east–west

Dryden town line. The western terminus of the route was at an intersection with NY 13 (modern NY 366
) in East Ithaca. Its eastern terminus was at Game Farm Road, a local road that straddled the boundary between the towns of Ithaca and Dryden.

NY 393 was assigned in the early 1930s as a signed designation for a highway that the state of New York had assumed maintenance of in the 1910s. It originally extended west along Mitchell Street to NY 79, but was truncated to Ithaca Road when NY 13 was rerouted through Ithaca in the mid-1930s. The NY 393 designation was removed in the mid-1960s, and its former routing is now maintained by the city of Ithaca and Tompkins County. The designation is currently reserved by the New York State Department of Transportation for a highway in Chautauqua County.

Route description

Mitchell Street, the former alignment of NY 393, in Ithaca

NY 393 began at the intersection of Mitchell Street and Ithaca Road in the

Dryden. The roadway continued eastward into Dryden as a locally maintained highway.[1]

History

The portion of Mitchell Street and Ellis Hollow Road from the

Dryden town line had existed as early as 1900.[6] In the early 1910s, the state of New York helped finance improvements to the portion of the highway within the town of Ithaca. The highway was added to the state highway system in late October 1914. In 1916, construction began on an upgrade of Mitchell Street in Ithaca, again partially paid for by the state of New York. All of Mitchell Street was accepted into the state highway system on August 31, 1917.[7]

The state-maintained portion of Mitchell Street and Ellis Hollow Road was designated as NY 393 c. 1933. The route began at

CR 110.[10]

The NY 393 designation is currently reserved by the New York State Department of Transportation for a proposed "Chautauqua Lakeway" in Chautauqua County between Interstate 86/NY 17 and NY 5. No timetable exists for the Lakeway's construction nor for NY 393's reassignment.[11]

Major intersections

The entire route was in Tompkins County.
