1943 Map of Middletown
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Susquehanna River dominates this mid-century landscape, acting as a natural boundary between York, Dauphin, and Lancaster counties during World War II. Heavy industry and infrastructure are evident in the Army Air Corps base near Middletown, the sprawling Filtration Plant, and the historic Codorus Furnace along Codorus Creek. The river is dotted with significant landforms such as Three Mile Island and Shelly Island, while the surrounding hills are anchored by landmarks like the Masonic Home and the State Hosp near Elizabethtown.
