Welcome to Ithaca and Tompkins County, the 14850 ZIP Code that gives us our domain name. We've been publishing 14850 Magazine since 1992, and our Ithaca-centric web site was not far behind. Explore these pages to find out more about Ithaca and the surroundings.
Downtown Ithaca is the neighborhood that stretches a few blocks from the Commons, the pedestrian mall in the middle of the City of Ithaca. State Street, running through the middle of the City, was closed off for two blocks around 1970 to create this scenic downtown area where shoppers and diners can stroll. State Street also links Ithaca (as Route 79) to Richford and Whitney Point to the east, and Mecklenburg and Watkins Glen to the west.
There's always something going on in Downtown Ithaca! Check out these selected upcoming events from the WVBR Community Calendar.
