1893 Map of Pittston

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the heart of this late 19th-century survey, acting as the primary artery for a region transitioning into a powerhouse of industrial transport. Along its banks, the dense rail infrastructure of the Lehigh Valley Railroad, the Delaware Lackawanna and Western Railroad, and the Central Railroad of N. J. illustrates the importance of the Wyoming Valley coal and freight corridors. High above the river, Campbell Ledge provides a dramatic overlook near the confluence of several major lines at Lackawanna & Bloomsburg Junction.
