USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Susquehanna River and Lackawanna River converge at the heart of this post-war landscape, marking a vital industrial corridor through Luzerne County. The extensive infrastructure of the Lehigh Valley and Central RR of New Jersey lines, including the sprawling Coxton Yards, highlights the era's reliance on rail transport for the region's coal and manufacturing output. Settlements like West Pittston, Duryea, and Pittston appear densely developed, punctuated by local landmarks such as the Wyoming Monument and several schools including Memorial High Sch.
