1963 Map of Altoona

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The rugged Allegheny Front terrain dominates this 1963 survey, revealing the complex industrial and residential landscape of Altoona and its surrounding mountain gaps. The city’s expansion is visible in neighborhoods like Alta Manor, Calvert Hills, and Wehnwood, while the western ridge lines show the extensive footprint of natural resource extraction through numerous Strip Mines and several areas designated as Reclaimed Strip Mine. These industrial zones sit in close proximity to massive conservation areas, including State Game Lands No 108 and State Game Lands No 184.
