1956 Map of Columbia East

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Columbia and the industrial riverfront of Lake Clarke define the southwestern edge of this survey, where the Conrail line parallels the Susquehanna River. Moving inland, the landscape transitions from the steep elevations of Chestnut Hill and Manor Hills into the fertile agricultural basins of Rapho and East Hempfield townships. This 1950s record, with later revisions, documents the expansion of suburban corridors along Harrisburg Pike and the growth of established centers like Mountville and Landisville.
