1943 Map of Bethlehem
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Delaware River cuts through the ancient terrain of the Pocono Mts and Blue Mountain at the iconic Delaware Water Gap, anchoring a landscape defined by the industrial and agricultural corridors of Eastern Pennsylvania and Western New Jersey. This mid-century survey reveals a dense network of transit and industry, where the Lehigh Valley RR and Lackawanna RR follow the winding paths of the Lehigh River and Musconetcong River. The map highlights a transition from the mountainous north, dotted with schools like Mexico School and Johnson Swamp Sch, to the more developed southern valley near Bethlehem and Easton.
