History

The segment of modern NY 193 between Woodville and Ellisburg was originally designated as part of NY 3C as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. NY 3C continued north from Woodville on what is now CR 78 and south from Ellisburg on current CR 121. NY 193 was assigned to its current alignment between Ellisburg and Pierrepont Manor by the following year. A new lakeside highway between Sandy Creek and the modern junction of NY 3 and NY 193 was opened to traffic as a realignment of then- NY 3D. An extension of the highway north to

was completed by the following year, at which time NY 3D was realigned onto the highway and NY 193 was extended westward to meet the lakeside highway by way of NY 3D's former routing to Woodville and a new highway between the lake shore and Woodville.
