1967 Map of Berlin

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Berlin serves as the focal point of this Somerset County landscape, where the borough's tight grid is surrounded by the industrial and agricultural activity of the late 1960s. The region is heavily marked by extractive industry, with numerous Strip Mine operations and a Shaft dotting the hills near Macdonaldton and Salco. Local institutional history is anchored by the Berlin-Brothersvalley Joint Schs and the County Home for the Aged, while the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor facilitates transport through Niver Junction. The map captures a detailed transition as the modern Pennsylvania Toll Road Turnpike cuts across the northern reaches near Brotherton and Downey, contrasting with the winding paths of Stonycreek River and Buffalo Creek. This survey reflects a community balanced between its rural roots, represented by Hillcrest Grange, and the post-war industrial demands of the Appalachian coal fields.
