1963 Map of Bellwood

About this map

Bellwood sits at the nexus of the Juniata River and the Penn Central Tracks, serving as a central hub for the surrounding ridges. The landscape is defined by the massive spine of Brush Mountain, which separates the industrial and residential corridors of Logan and Antis from the fertile agricultural expanse of Sinking Valley. In the early 1960s, the area shows a clear progression of settlement from older village centers like Fostoria and Roots toward the growing suburban edge of Altoona East End.
