Industrial activity and river transport define this 1960 survey of the northern panhandle, where the Ohio River forms a busy corridor between West Virginia, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Large-scale manufacturing and shipping facilities dominate the riverbanks at Newell, Chester, and New Cumberland, while the Pennsylvania railroad tracks trace the water’s edge to serve the valley’s heavy industry. The New Cumberland Lock and Dam stands as a massive piece of infrastructure regulating the flow of the river during this era of post-war growth.
