1997 Map of Tower City

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Tower City and Williamstown anchor a series of industrial valley settlements along the Wiconisco Creek corridor in the late twentieth century. This region of Pennsylvania's coal country is defined by the sharp parallel ridges of Bear Mountain, Big Lick Mountain, and Sharp Mountain, which separate the developed valleys from the expansive wildlands of State Game Lands No 211 and Weiser State Forest. The map documents the local social fabric through landmarks like the Sacred Heart Cem, the Drive-in Theater east of Sheridan, and the Gold Mine Speedway.
