1967 Map of Germantown

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Wissahickon Creek carves a deep green corridor through this densely developed landscape, separating the neighborhoods of Chestnut Hill and Mt Airy from the steep slopes of Roxborough. This 1967 survey, updated with 1973 revisions, reveals the complex urban and suburban fabric of Northwest Philadelphia and southern Montgomery County. The map captures the final years of operation for the extensive Penn Central and Reading railroad networks before their consolidation, showing the numerous commuter stations that fueled the growth of towns like Jenkintown, Glenside, and Bala-Cynwyd.
