1916 Map of Wind Gap
USGS Topo · Published 1916About this map
Blue Mountain serves as a massive natural divide across this 1916 landscape, punctuated by the dramatic geomorphic notch at Wind Gap. This gateway provides a vital passage for the Lehigh and New England railroad, linking the concentrated industry of Pen Argyl with the rural valleys to the north. The map documents a dense network of local education and commerce, from the Mexico School in the north to Sours Mills in the south, reflecting a period when small agrarian hubs like Brodheadsville and Saylorsburg were the centers of community life.
