Tamaqua and the surrounding coal region towns of the Panther Valley are defined by a complex landscape of ridges and infrastructure. This modern survey illustrates the industrial legacy of the region, tracing the Lehigh and New England RR as it winds through the narrow gaps between Locust Mountain and Nesquehoning Mountain. The settlement pattern is densely concentrated in the valleys, particularly within Coaldale, Lansford, and Summit Hill, where the grid of streets like W Broad St and E Elm St ends abruptly at the steep slopes of Mauch Chunk Ridge.
