New York State Route 215 is a very short north-south New York State Route located entirely within Cortland County in Central New York. Its northern terminus is located at a junction with New York State Route 13 in the city of Cortland. The southern terminus is located at a junction with NY 392 in the town of Virgil.

Present-day NY 215 was originally part of NY 90. In fact, the reference markers along the road still bear the original route number.

Originally, NY 215 was designated to Redman Road located between NY 360 and the Lake Ontario State Parkway in Monroe County. This designation was removed in the early 1970s, to be reissued to the present-day NY 215 in the early 1980s when NY 90's length in Cortland County was scaled back.

[edit] History

NY 215 assumed its current alignment when NY 90 was set back to Homer. It was originally aligned on Redman Road between NY 360 and the Lake Ontario State Parkway in Hamlin. This designation was removed when the LOSP was extended into Orleans County.^[1]
