USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Wernersville State Hospital and the busy industrial corridor of the Reading Railroad dominate this mid-century view of the Lebanon Valley. The landscape transitions from the developed boroughs of Sinking Spring and Wernersville in the north toward the high ridges of Laurel Ridge and the South Mountain area. This 1955 survey illustrates a community deeply tied to its infrastructure and natural elevations, featuring prominent landmarks like Galen Hall and the YMCA Camp positioned among the wooded hills.
