SOAR - Harrisburg Chapter

Harrisburg joined the SOAR family in May 2018. The history of Harrisburg, the state capital of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, has played a key role in the development of the nation’s industrial history, from its origins as a trading outpost to the present. During part of the 19th century, the building of the Pennsylvania Canal and the Pennsylvania Railroad, allowed Harrisburg to become one of the most industrialized cities in the Northeastern United States.
