The Vestal river gage on the Susquehanna River is located 8 miles west of the Binghamton Washington Street Gage. Vestal is on the left bank of the river and the Town of Union Communities of Johnson City, Endwell and Endicott are on the right bank of the Susquehanna River. Each community had extensive flood losses, too numerous to list. Some of the more notable losses are the many homes in areas like the Castle Gardens development which were recovering from losses due to the April 2005 flooding.
