1948 Map of Nesquehoning
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The ridge-and-valley landscape of the Mahoning Valley is dominated by the industrial and transport arteries of the coal region during the mid-20th century. High above Nesquehoning, the Central Railroad of New Jersey and Lehigh Valley Railroad trace the contours of Nesquehoning Mountain, serving the dense boroughs of Lansford and Summit Hill. The map reveals the scars of industry in the north, including a large Settling Basin, while the southern reaches near Mantzville transition into a more rural pattern of small schools and churches.
