About this map

The Ohio River and its industrial corridors define this mid-century portrait of the tri-state region. This survey captures the dense network of steel towns and rail hubs as they appeared following the post-war industrial peak. Major urban centers like Canton, Akron, and Pittsburgh are shown alongside the sprawling infrastructure of the Pennsylvania RR and the Baltimore & Ohio RR, reflecting the heavy reliance on rail transport for coal and manufacturing.
