About this map

Warsaw and the surrounding townships of Washington and Pinecreek define this Jefferson County landscape, where the mid-century economy is visibly transitioning between resource extraction and modern infrastructure. The map documents an extensive network of extractive activity, from traditional Strip Mine sites and older Gas Wells to significant areas of Reclaimed Strip Mine land. This industrial presence contrasts with the rural community hubs at Hazen and Allens Mills, where local life centered around the Warsaw Sch and the St Pauls Ch in Hormtown.

The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the modern expansion of the Du Bois-Jefferson County Airport and the emerging corridor of Interstate 80 at Interchange 15. Between these points of progress, the terrain remains carved by numerous waterways like Mill Creek and Fivemile Run, providing a clear picture of how the high plateau geography influenced the placement of early settlements like Egypt and Pardus before the era of large-scale land reclamation.
