We also have a movie theater on our main street it is called The Glen Theater. One of our favorite foods is pizza and we have three pizza places on Main Street. We have many, many different kinds of stores here on Franklin Street in Watkins Glen. Just about anything you could imagine for a little village is here on our Main Street. Something uniquely beautiful about our main street is the New York State Park and Gorge.
Many people come from far away to walk through the gorge and take pictures.
The gorge has lots of paths you can follow and many waterfalls. One such path takes you over a large bridge and then to a really big swimming pool which is open to the public. In addition to our State Park we also have a beautiful lake. Watkins Glen is located at the South end of Seneca Lake, which is one of the Finger Lakes of New York State. Seneca Lake was named after the Seneca Indians, which were members of the Iroquois nation.
