2013 Map of Moscow

About this map

Moscow serves as a central hub in this part of Lackawanna County, situated along the Roaring Brook and surrounded by a series of residential developments including Stephen Heights, Harmony Hills, and Dawn Acres. The landscape is defined by its water resources, notably the expansive Watres Reservoir to the southwest and Elmhurst Reservoir to the north, which collect the flow from numerous streams like Stafford Meadow Brook and Six Springs Cr. A mix of small settlements and named intersections such as Fells Corners, Quinlan Corners, and Yostville suggests a long-established pattern of rural crossroad communities. In the west, the Lazy J. Ranch Airport sits near Spring Brook Corners, while prominent terrain features like The Hogback and Blair Hill overlook the valleys of Ash Cr and Mash Cr. The network of local roads and interstate corridors illustrates the area's continued role as a residential and transit corridor within the greater Scranton region.
