1945 Map of Shippensburg
USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
The town of Shippensburg serves as the focal point for this 1945 study, where the plains of the Cumberland Valley meet the formidable ridges of Kittatinny Mountain and Blue Mountain. This era captures a critical moment in modern transportation history with the Pennsylvania Turnpike cutting across the landscape, featuring the Blue Mt Tunnel and Kittatinny Tunnel through the ridge-and-valley terrain. At the Blue Mt Interchange, the new highway age meets the older agrarian patterns of Horse Valley and Amberson Ridge.
