1916 Map of Wind Gap
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Blue Mountain serves as the dominant topographic spine of this region, separating the ridge-and-valley landscape of Monroe and Northampton counties during the early twentieth century. The map illustrates a dense network of early industry and local infrastructure, particularly the concentration of slate and mineral extraction near Chapman Quarries and Siegfried. The rail-dependent economy of the era is evident through the complex junctions of the Lehigh and New England RR and the Lackawanna RR, which served the small communities of Saylorsburg and Wind Gap.
