Jerusalem Hill in Elmira, New York, got its name from the early settlers who were primarily of Protestant descent and named the area in reference to the biblical city of Jerusalem. The name reflects the religious significance and aspirations of the community during the 19th century. Additionally, the hill itself offered a prominent vantage point, further enhancing its symbolic value as a place of reflection and spirituality.
