About this map

The Susquehanna River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a deep path through the massive ridges of Second Mountain, Cove Mountain, and Blue Mountain. The state’s capital region is shown during a period of significant post-war infrastructure, anchored by the State Capitol and the sprawling Railroad Yard at Enola. The map captures the complex rail-and-river geography of the area, featuring the massive Rockville Bridge connecting the east and west banks.
