1969 Map of Hershey

About this map

The town of Hershey and the borough of Hummelstown anchor this survey of Dauphin County, showing the region as it transitioned through the late 1960s with updates into the late 1980s. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Swatara Creek and the remnants of the Union Canal, which parallels the waterway near Sand Beach. This era captures the expanding infrastructure of the chocolate capital, including the Hershey Medical Center, the State Police Academy, and the Hershey Air Park located near the Stadium.
