1965 Map of Lock Haven

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the center of this 1960s landscape, separating the dense urban grid of Lock Haven from the steep slopes of Woodward Mountain. The city's mid-century character is defined by its educational and industrial anchors, notably the Lock Haven State College campus and the sprawling Piper Memorial Airport on the river’s southern bank. To the west, the borough of Flemington sits nestled between the river and the Bald Eagle Creek, while traces of the Bald Eagle Canal remain visible along the valley floor.
