1964 Map of Allentown West

About this map

Allentown dominates the eastern edge of this landscape, its urban grid and corporate boundaries reaching toward suburban clusters like Sterlingworth and Dorneyville. The mid-century development patterns are evident in the sprawling Crest Plaza Shopping Center and residential expansion near Ancient Oaks, while the western reaches retain a more varied landscape of small settlements and industry. The industrial heritage of the region is anchored by the Lock Ridge Park and Furnace Museum near Alburtis, a reminder of the iron-producing past of the Lehigh Valley.
