1999 Map of Reading

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

The Schuylkill River carves a sharp path through the heart of the region, defining the industrial and urban orientation of Reading and its surrounding boroughs. This late-twentieth-century landscape illustrates a dense network of educational and religious institutions, from Sacred Heart Sch to the campus of Penn State University, reflecting the social development of Berks County. To the west, Van Reeds Mill stands as a reminder of earlier water-powered industry along Tulpehocken Creek, while the expansive Reading Municipal General Carl A Spaatz Field to the north signals the area's modern infrastructure.
