About this map

The Susquehanna River dominates this post-war landscape, carving through a series of dramatic ridges including Second Mountain, Cove Mountain, and Blue Mountain. The massive Rockville Bridge stands as a central industrial landmark, linking the rail yards and riverside communities of Enola and Marysville to the state capital. The map captures the transition from the dense urban grid of Harrisburg, featuring the State Capitol, to the expanding suburbs of Camp Hill and Wormleysburg.
