1957 Map of Beaver Falls

About this map

The Beaver River and Connoquenessing Creek serve as the industrial and logistical spine of this region during the late 1950s. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of extractive industry, with numerous Strip Mines and smaller strip mines dotting the hillsides above Beaver Falls and Ellwood City. This era shows a dense concentration of educational and social institutions, including the campus of Geneva College and several local schools like Lincoln Sch and Ewing Park Sch, alongside established religious sites such as Concord Church and St Marys Cem.
