1960 Map of Ambridge

About this map

The Ohio River corridor serves as the industrial and social backbone of this Pennsylvania landscape, where the concentrated residential grids of Ambridge and Coraopolis contrast with the winding creek valleys of the interior. The river's influence is evident in the heavy infrastructure of the Conrail and P & L E RR lines, as well as the Dashields Dam and Coast Guard Station. On the heights above the river, institutional presence is marked by the Dixmont State Hospital and several parochial landmarks like the Pelician Sisters Academy and St Josephs Sch.
