2013 Map of Catasauqua

About this map

The Lehigh River corridor serves as the industrial and residential spine for this region of eastern Pennsylvania, where historic river towns and modern transportation infrastructure meet. Dense urban centers like Catasauqua, North Catasauqua, and Hokendauqua occupy the western portion of the sheet, while the eastern landscape transitions into a network of small settlements and crossroad hamlets. The map illustrates the specialized rail infrastructure of the area with Cement Junction and Bath Junction, highlighting the region's historical industrial ties. Dominating the central-eastern landscape is the Lehigh Valley International Airport, surrounded by commercial developments like the Valley Center Pkwy. To the north, the terrain rises toward Holiday Hill and Sauerkraut Hill, with water features such as Catasauqua Lake, Miller Slate Pond, and the meandering Monocacy Cr providing contrast to the built environment.
