About this map

Harrisburg anchors this late-19th-century landscape where the industrial and natural worlds collide at the water's edge. The Susquehanna River dominates the western corridor, dotted with significant landforms like Haldeman Island and Duncan Island. This era captures a transition in Pennsylvania's transportation history, showing the Pennsylvania Canal still paralleling the newer tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Northern Central Railroad.
