1960 Map of Ambridge

About this map

The industrial corridor of the Ohio River dominates this mid-century topographic record, showing the dense development of Ambridge, Aliquippa, and Sewickley. The map highlights the area's transition from the riverfront mills and the Pennsylvania railroad lines to the residential expansion of Ambridge Heights and Bon Meade. Significant local history is preserved in labels for the Old Economy Historical Site and numerous religious and educational landmarks like the Felicician Sisters Academy and Sewickley Academy.
