About this map

Cushion Peak stands as a prominent landmark in this transition from the suburban clusters west of Reading to the ridges of the South Mountain area. The landscape is defined by a dense network of residential developments and institutions, including the Villa Maria Infirmary, Phoebe Berks Village, and South Mountain Manor. These settlements are closely tied to the winding paths of Cacoosing Cr and Little Cacoosing Cr, which carve through the terrain between Wernersville and Sinking Spring.

To the north, the waters of Blue Marsh Lake and the Tulpehocken Cr provide a recreational focus at the State Hill Boat Launch. Further south, the map details established communities like Gouglersville and Reinholds, alongside localized landmarks such as the West Cloister Garden and several golf courses. The documentation of schools, camps like YMCA Camp, and neighborhood-specific tracts such as Cornwall Terrace provides a clear view of the region's mid-century growth and land use patterns.
