About this map

The confluence of the Beaver River and the Ohio River forms the industrial and geographic heart of this Beaver County survey. Dense residential and commercial street grids characterize riverfront communities like Beaver Falls, New Brighton, Rochester, and Monaca, which were established around the vital waterways and the NS rail corridor. The river crossings are particularly notable, including the Tenth Street Bridge connecting Patterson Heights and the Monaca Rochester Bridge downstream.

Upland from the river valleys, the landscape shifts toward wooded hills and suburban developments like Marion Hill and Doctor Heights. Significant recreational and infrastructure assets are visible, such as the expansive Bradys Run Park with Bradys Run Lake and the Black Rock Airport. The map also captures several smaller river-oriented localities like Bridgewater, Freedom, and Bellowsville, alongside industrial river features like Lacock Bar and Bakers Landing, reflecting the area's long-standing connection to riverine commerce and transportation.
