Restrictive Covenants in the Harrisburg region

ID: 257 | This file appears in: Restrictions on Locust Street
A map of properties (green dots) with known racially-restrictive housing covenants in Harrisburg and surrounding regions in the mid-20th century. The background map is the HOLC property zoning map. The green dots represent only a sample of identified covenants of properties with restrictive covenants. The actual number of such cases must be far more extensive and numerous.
