About this map

The Monongahela River and Youghiogheny River define this industrial landscape of southwestern Pennsylvania during the mid-1950s. The map reveals a dense network of riverfront settlements like Belle Vernon, Fayette City, and Stockdale, supported by the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie RR and the Pennsylvania RR. Inland, the economy shifts toward heavy extraction, evidenced by numerous Strip Mines and railroad sidings reaching into smaller communities like Grindstone and Rowes Run.
