1893 Map of Mahanoy

USGS Topo · Published 1906

About this map

Shenandoah and Mahanoy City anchor the southern valleys of this late 19th-century survey, revealing a landscape deeply defined by the coal industry and its complex transportation networks. The terrain is a series of prominent ridges, including Mahanoy Mountain and Locust Mountain, where the infrastructure of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad and the Lehigh Valley Railroad weave through narrow gaps and along steep slopes. These lines connected isolated coal patches and industrial settlements like Delano and New Boston to broader markets.
