New York State Route 180 (NY 180) is a north–south state highway in the northwestern part of Jefferson County in the U.S. state of New York. The southern terminus of the route is at NY 3 in the Hounsfield hamlet of Baggs Corner, located 7 miles (11 km) west of downtown Watertown. The northern terminus is at NY 12 in the Orleans hamlet of Fishers Landing. NY 180 is part of the Seaway Trail from its southern terminus at Baggs Corner to its junction with NY 12E at the Brownville hamlet of Limerick.
NY 180 begins at an intersection with NY 3 in the Hounsfield hamlet of Baggs Corner. A state-maintained continuation of County Route 66 (CR 66), NY 180 runs northeast through the wide fields of Hounsfield, passing east of the Black River Bay, and after bending north, the route passes west of Watertown International Airport. NY 180 soon meets at a junction with NY 12F, which runs east past the entrance of the airport. Crossing over the Black River, the route enters the village of Dexter. Now known as Brown Street, NY 180 runs north through the center of the village, reaching a junction with Grove Street, marking the northern edge of the village.
