About this map

The Ohio River flows through this industrial and rural borderland, where the tri-state boundaries of Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania converge. The northern riverfront is dominated by the heavy industry and infrastructure of East Liverpool and Chester, connected by the Newell Toll Bridge. South of the river, the landscape shifts into the deeply dissected plateaus of Hancock County, where numerous oil wells and strip mines are interspersed among small communities like New Manchester and Lawrenceville.

Conservation and civic infrastructure define the interior, highlighted by the sprawling Tomlinson Run State Park and its central Tomlinson Run Lake. Local heritage is preserved in landmarks such as the Locust Hill Cem and Tomlinson Run Ch, while the region's mid-century development is visible through the Herron Airport and the County Childrens Home. The river remains the primary artery, supporting the Conrail line and the massive New Cumberland Lock and Dam near New Cumberland.
