1947 Map of Hazleton

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The anthracite coal heritage of Pennsylvania is etched across this 1947 landscape, where industrial infrastructure meets the steep ridges of Banks Mountain and Spring Mountain. The urban core of Hazleton and West Hazleton stands as a dense grid of streets, anchored by the Post Office and High School. Surrounding the city, numerous smaller patch towns and mining settlements such as Lattimer Mines (PO), Jeanesville, and Beaver Meadows speak to the region's labor history and the dispersed nature of coal extraction during this era.
