1946 Map of Kingston

About this map

The Susquehanna River defines the southeastern border of this mid-century landscape, where the dense boroughs of Kingston, Forty Fort, and Edwardsville contrast with the expanding residential suburbs to the northwest. The terrain climbs from the river flats toward Chestnut Ridge, passing through the developing communities of Shavertown and Trucksville. Educational and religious institutions are prominent features, from the campus of Misericordia College near Dallas to the historic Wyoming Seminary in Kingston.
