1969 Map of Elkins

About this map

Elkins serves as a vital hub where the Tygart Valley River meets a complex network of rail and industry during the late 1960s. The town's layout is defined by the intersection of the Western Maryland and Baltimore and Ohio railroads, supporting a landscape that balances civic institutions like Davis and Elkins College with industrial sites such as the Sewage Disposal plant and various Radio Towers. Residential growth is evident in neighborhoods like Highland Park and Harpertown, while the presence of Memorial General Hospital and Central High Sch reflects the mid-century development of this Randolph County seat.
