1957 Map of Canton

About this map

The Ohio River valley and its industrial heartland serve as the focal point of this 1957 regional survey, documenting the dense network of steel towns and river hubs during a peak era of production. The map captures the meeting of the Monongahela River and the Allegheny at Pittsburgh, while the massive bends of the Ohio anchor cities like Steubenville, Weirton, and Wheeling. Inland, the industrial dominance of Canton, Akron, and Massillon is evident through their sprawling footprints and the convergence of major transit lines like the Pennsylvania RR and the Baltimore & Ohio RR.
