FOUND Student ID near Elmira College library
Hi, I’m Alex Rivera. I FOUND a student ID today around 3:20 p.m. on the sidewalk just outside the Elmira College library. It was lying near the campus entrance, by a row of benches facing the quad. The card clearly belongs to a student, and I want to help reunite it with the right person. I didn’t read any personal info on the card and I’m leaving it here for the owner to claim. If you recognize the ID or know who attends Elmira College, please reach out through the site so I can arrange a proper handoff.
Lost: Travel Adapters in Elmira-Corning, NY
On Tuesday around 11:45 a.m., I realized my travel adapters were missing after a quick break near Eldridge Park's entrance along the Elmira River Walk. I must have left them on a bench by the little gazebo while I checked my map. They’re small, black, with a red tag that reads Travel Adapters, and one of them bears my initials in pencil. Losing them has been a real nuisance, since I rely on them for work, and I’m hoping they turn up here so I can finish my trip without extra hassles.
Lost postcards in Elmira-Corning
I was wandering through the Elmira-Corning area around 2:30 p.m. on Monday when I realized I had lost a small stack of postcards from a Finger Lakes trip. They're colorful mementos—pictures from Watkins Glen, Ithaca, and the lake districts—meant to go into a scrapbook. They could have fallen from my tote near the Arnot Mall entrance. If found, I would love to have them back so I can finish the album and relive those memories.
Lost USB drives in Elmira-Corning area
On Monday at 3:15 PM, I realized I left three USB drives in a small black case on a bench near Eldridge Park in Elmira. I had stopped there after a quick errand, and the bench overlooked the Chemung River, with a few pigeons fluttering above the walkway. I am frantic about the data on those drives—one holds client files, another the project notes, and the third has a personal research archive. The drives were in a black neoprene sleeve with a blue zipper, and I last touched them while checking a map at the Elmira-Corning Main Street crossing. If you found them, please return them to the site; I am hoping someone picked them up and handed them in.
Red dog harness with reflective stripe
I found a red nylon dog harness this morning around 7:45 in the Walmart parking lot behind Main Street in Elmira-Corning. It's a medium size, with black buckles and a bright reflective stripe along the chest strap. It's a generic nylon harness with no visible brand tag. There's a small green paw-print tag attached to the D-ring that reads 'Rex' in faded letters, and one metal D-ring has a dent from wear. It looks used but still in decent condition overall. I know how important gear like this can be for daily walks and safety, so I hope the owner sees this and can claim it soon. If this belongs to your pup, drop a note here and we can arrange a safe meetup near the store.
Silver bracelet with heart charm
I lost my slim silver bracelet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Corning, right by the Elmira-Corning Public Library steps. It's a delicate piece, about 7 inches long, with a tiny heart charm engraved 'Mom' and a small turquoise bead on the clasp. The bracelet is second-hand but special—it was a gift from my grandmother and has a lot of sentimental value. If anyone found something like this on the sidewalk by Main and Market or near the library entrance, please reach out—I'm really hoping to get it back.
Silver Timex pocket watch with dragon charm
I lost my silver Timex pocket watch yesterday around 3pm near the public library on Water Street in Elmira-Corning. It's palm-sized with a brushed silver case, a faint dent at the rim, and a black leather fob. A tiny green dragon charm hangs from the chain, and the back is engraved with the initials 'A.P.' The glass has a small scratch, and this watch has sentimental value—it's a keepsake from my grandmother. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate a note here so we can arrange a meetup.
Gray cockatiel with yellow crest, lost yesterday
I lost my gray cockatiel yesterday around 3:00pm near Water Street by Riverside Park in Elmira-Corning. It's a mature male, about 12 inches from beak to tail, with a bright yellow crest and orange cheek patches. The body is mainly gray with white-tipped tail feathers, and one of the left wing feathers has a tiny white feather that sticks out a bit more than the rest. He typically perches on my shoulder and answers to the name 'Sunny' when I whistle. This bird has sentimental value — he's been with me since last year and helped me through some tough times. If anyone sees him in the trees around Corning's Market Street or Elmira's Water Street, or hears a cheerful chirp, please contact me. I’m really worried and would be forever grateful to get him back.
Red Yamaha snare drum with sticks
I lost my red Yamaha snare drum yesterday around 3pm near the Cornerstone Cafe on Water Street in Elmira. It's a 14x5.5 inch steel shell with chrome hardware and a small dent on the rim. A blue drumstick bag is tucked inside the snare, and there's a tiny sticker that says 'K-9 Band' on the shell. This drum means a lot to me—it's how I practice for community gigs and it's been with me since I started playing in my youth orchestra; I'd really appreciate getting it back.
Grey plush dog with blue scarf found near library
I found a grey plush dog this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Elmira Public Library on Main Street. It's about 12 inches tall, incredibly soft, with a bright blue knit scarf and a tiny orange paw patch on its left hind leg. The fur is a little matted from love, but clean. There's a small fabric tag sewn into the scarf that says 'Buddy'. It looks well-loved, so I’d love to get it back to its owner. If this sounds like yours, shoot me a message and I’ll reunite you.
Brown Fossil wallet lost near Starbucks on Water Street
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my brown Fossil wallet was missing near the Starbucks on Water Street in Elmira. It's a slim brown leather bifold, about the size of a playing card, with a tiny embossed Fossil logo on the bottom right and a faint coffee stain on the back corner. Inside are my driver's license, a few cards, and a small photo of my grandmother—it's really sentimental and I’d be heartbroken to lose it. I stitched a thin red thread along the inner edge after a loose seam started showing; you might notice that little detail if you look inside. If you found it, please message me here; I’d be so grateful to get it back.
Pair of blue concert tickets with seats B12-B13
I found two printed concert tickets this afternoon around 4:15pm outside the Clemens Center on Main Street in Elmira-Corning. They’re for a show by Emerald Nights, printed on blue-tinted stock, with large barcodes still clearly visible, seats listed as B12 and B13. One ticket has a tiny coffee-ring stain near the bottom edge; the other is crisp, just a little wrinkled from rain. They look like they were for someone’s plans for the evening and might be sentimental. If these belong to you, the seat numbers and event name should help verify ownership.
Navy knit scarf with pinecone pin
I lost my navy knit scarf yesterday around 3pm near the Arnot Mall entrance in Elmira-Corning (Big Flats area). It's a medium-thick scarf, about 60 inches long, with a small brass pinecone pin sewn near the end and a faint coffee stain on one corner. I was walking from the mall toward the transit stop and think the wind whipped it away somewhere along the parking lot. It has sentimental value—my grandmother knitted it for me—so I’d really appreciate getting it back if anyone found it.
Black iPhone 12 Pro Max with red case
I lost my black iPhone 12 Pro Max yesterday around 3pm. It's in a bright red silicone case, with a small chip on the bottom edge and a tiny green star sticker on the back. I last had it while I grabbed a coffee on Main Street in downtown Elmira, around the corner from Water Street, near the little cafe with the blue awning. The phone has photos of my grandma and some work notes, so it means a lot to me. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate returning it—I'd be happy to meet up nearby or arrange pickup at the Elmira Police Department lobby.
Missing person: Lena Morales, 25, blue hoodie, Eldridge Park
I lost my sister, Lena Morales, 25, after she wandered off yesterday around 3pm near Eldridge Park on Main Street in Elmira. She was wearing a light blue North Face hoodie, black leggings, and white sneakers with a pink stripe. Lena has a small crescent tattoo on her inner left wrist and wears a silver hoop earring in her left ear. We're really worried and just want her safe—please reach out if you see her near Eldridge Park, Main Street, or around the Elmira College area.
