About this map

The Lehigh River carves a deep, winding path through the heart of this Carbon County landscape, dictating the development of transportation and industry as seen at the turn of the 1960s. The northern end of Jim Thorpe serves as a focal point, where the river's bend at Oxbow Bend meets the Lehigh Valley RR and the Central RR of New Jersey. This corridor showcases the era's heavy reliance on rail and river, featuring the Rockport Tunnel and the strategic Penn Haven Junction where tracks converge.
