Frequently asked questions
The creek looks small from the bridge. What actually wets a downtown cellar here?
Oneida Creek runs the old canal village across limestone flats, and its outlet is often already high when a July cell arrives. The canal prism under the blocks carries water on a fair day, and the limestone joints weep into bench cellars once the flats are loaded. A 1946 masonry wall on creek fill with no later drain tile takes all of that from the side.
The Erie prism is in the grass. Why would it still wet a 1946 cellar?
The prism was covered, not removed. It still carries. Dye in the void is the local confirmation. Starting at the roof of a 1946 house will miss a channel that never used the gutter.
Oneida Lake is north. Is the lake in the downtown floor?
As a flood, only when the outlet is already high and the creek cannot dump. As a table, the lake-plain limestone holds July water in joints far from the shore. The lake job is the outlet. The rock job is the bench.
