About this map

Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg serve as the hub of this corridor, where the Monroe County Courthouse and East Stroudsburg University anchor the urban landscape. The terrain is defined by the prominent ridge of Kittatinny Mountain, which is breached by the Delaware Water Gap in the northeast. This geological feature has long dictated transport and settlement patterns, with the Pennsylvania New Jersey railroad line following the path carved by the Delaware River.

Conservation areas like the Cherry Valley National Wildlife Refuge and the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area protect large swaths of the mountainside. Genealogists can find numerous historical burial sites, including the Burial Ground of Friends and Dansbury Cem. To the south, the landscape transitions toward industrial and rural clusters such as Bangor and Roseto, connected by the Million Dollar Hwy.
