2019 Map of Lancaster

About this map

The city of Lancaster and its surrounding suburban and collegiate landscapes appear here in high detail, centered on the intersection of Pennsylvania's historic rail and road networks. The map identifies major academic and civic institutions, including Franklin and Marshall College and the Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology, alongside the Lancaster County Courthouse. This 2019 survey documents a densely layered cultural geography, where modern residential developments like Beverly Estates and Eden Heights sit adjacent to numerous historic burial grounds such as the Shaurai Shomayim Cem and Mellinger Mennonite Cem. The Conestoga River and its many tributaries, like Little Conestoga Cr and Stauffer Run, frame the city's growth. To the north, the Lancaster Airport and the Norfolk Southern railway lines underscore the region's importance as a transportation hub within the Pennsylvania Dutch Country.
