  • Ithaca Falls is a waterfall located within the city of Ithaca, New York. It is the last of a series of waterfalls along the hanging valley formed where Fall Creek intersects the glacial trough of Cayuga Lake. The falls are in an amphitheater formed by freezing and thawing of the weak shale which makes up most of the gorge walls. The splash pool, and the creek just below the falls, are a popular spot for fly fishing. The area around the base of the falls was owned by Cornell University for many years, before being sold to the City of Ithaca in 2000 as a part of environmental cleanup. The area has been a popular, if dilapidated, park for many years; currently it is undergoing a major redesign and rebuild. In June 2016, the Ithaca Common Council voted to demolish a house directly north of the falls and add the parcel to the park. The city had acquired the house after the owner failed to pay property taxes. The falls is present as the stylized "I" in the "" logo. (en)
  • 伊萨卡瀑布(Ithaca Falls)是一座位于纽约州伊萨卡市内的瀑布。这是沿着垂悬山谷形成的一系列瀑布中的最后一座,与卡尤加湖的冰川槽在这里相交。瀑布处的地形像一个圆形剧场,这个“剧场”是由脆弱的页岩冻结和融化形成的,而页岩也是构成大部分峡谷壁的岩石。飞溅池和瀑布下的小河是飞蝇钓的热门场所。 以前的很多年,瀑布所在地周围区域都归康奈尔大学所有,后来在2000年出售给伊萨卡市,以便进行环境清理工作。该区域多年来一直是一个受欢迎的公园,即使其破败不堪;目前,它正在进行重大的重新设计和重建。2016年6月,伊萨卡投票决定,拆除瀑布正北的一所房屋,并将该地块纳入到公园中。以前的业主未能缴纳财产税,因此该市已购得这所房子。 在“伊萨卡是峡谷”(Ithaca is Gorges)的徽标中,该瀑布化身为“I”出现在其中。 (zh)
