About this map

Wilkes Barre Mountain and Wyoming Mountain dominate this mid-century landscape, framing the industrial and residential growth east of the city core. The map documents an era when extractive industry and recreational retreats existed in close proximity. Multiple strip mines are visible near Boulevard Manor and Georgetown, while further south, the terrain shifts toward high-elevation wetlands and lakes including Crystal Lake and Bear Creek Lake.
