1902 Map of Hollidaysburg
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Hollidaysburg and the surrounding Ridge-and-Valley province of central Pennsylvania are defined by the industry and transit routes of the early twentieth century. The Pennsylvania R. R. weaves through narrow gaps in the terrain, including Blair Gap and the ascent toward Kittanning Pt, while the Frankstown Branch Juniata River provides the primary drainage for numerous runs like Burgoon Run and Sugar Run. The landscape is a corridor of industrial activity, with the Altoona Reservoir supporting the nearby rail hub and Ore Hill marking a legacy of mineral extraction in the southern valleys.
