1946 Map of Noxen

About this map

The Lehigh Valley Railroad winds through the deep valleys of the Endless Mountains in this post-war survey, tracing the course of Bowman Creek past several small settlements and industrial sidings. The local economy and social structure are evidenced by landmarks like the Childrens Welfare Center and the cluster of homes at Noxen. Further south, the landscape shifts toward the recreational and residential developments surrounding the northern tip of Harveys Lake.
