1966 Map of Roxbury

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Letterkenny Army Depot dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, its expansive reservation boundary marked by the U S Government Railroad and internal networks. This military facility sits in stark contrast to the small-scale agricultural and rural settlements to the north, such as Upper Strasburg and Roxbury. The topographical transition is sharp where the Conodoguinet Valley meets the rising slopes of Blue Mountain and Kittatinny Mountain, much of which is protected as Buchanan State Forest and State Game Lands No 76. Local life centers around several country churches, including Emmanuel Ch and Salem Ch, and landmarks like Benders Park. The waters of the Letterkenny Reservoir and winding Conodoguinet Creek provide the primary drainage for this part of Franklin County, supporting a landscape that remains largely rural outside the federal depot.
