1963 Map of Cresson
USGS Topo · Published 1989About this map
Cresson and Gallitzin sit at the summit of the Alleghenies, where the industrial legacy of the Conrail line meets the preserved history of the Allegheny Portage Railroad Old Railroad Grade. The landscape is a complex mix of institutional grounds and resource extraction, featuring the Lawrence Flick State Hospital and Mt Aloysius Jr College alongside numerous oil wells and strip mines. The map reveals the critical importance of water management in this high-elevation terrain, with the Lilly Reservoirs and the Hollidaysburg Reservoir tucked into the gaps of the eastern continental divide.
