USGS Topo · Published 1912About this map
Slatington and the surrounding slate-quarrying townships of Washington and North Whitehall dominate this turn-of-the-century landscape. The Lehigh River and the parallel Lehigh Canal serve as the primary industrial arteries, supporting a dense network of rail lines including the L. V. R. R. Slatington Branch and the Ironton R. R.. The industrial character of the region is evident in the Consolidated Quarries near Slatedale and the historic iron-making site at Lehigh Furnace at the foot of Blue Mountain.
