About this map

Erie and its southern townships reveal a landscape undergoing significant post-war expansion, with extensive purple-tinted urban updates layered over a mid-century base. The city’s core is dense with educational and religious institutions, including Villa Maria College and Mercyhurst College, while heavy industry and transit hubs like Dock Junction define the northwestern lakefront. The rail infrastructure is prominent, featuring lines of the Penn Central, Norfolk and Western, and Bessemer and Lake Erie that intersect the grid.
