1889 Map of Hazleton
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Hazleton stands as the urban anchor of this late 19th-century landscape, surrounded by a dense network of mining settlements and intricate rail lines that define the anthracite coal region. The terrain is characterized by the prominent ridges of Nesquehoning Mountains and Mauch Chunk Mountain, which dictate the paths of the many competing railroads. The Hazleton and Delano Br of Lehigh Val and the Central Railroad of New Jersey weave through narrow valleys and gaps to service busy coal towns like Lansford, Summit Hill, and Coaldale.
