1947 Map of Wilkes-Barre East
USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Wilkes-Barre sits at the foot of the massive Wilkes-Barre Mountain ridge, marking the edge of a landscape defined by industry and highland recreation. The 1947 survey captures a period of transition, where active strip mines neighbor growing residential developments like Boulevard Manor. Extensive rail lines of the Conrail system wind through the gaps, connecting the coal-rich valley to the high plateau country.
