About this map

The industrial and institutional landscape of Blair County unfolds here in the early 1960s, anchored by the expansion of Altoona and Hollidaysburg. This survey documents a critical period of infrastructure, showing the Pennsylvania RR navigating the iconic Horseshoe Curve to the west, while the burgeoning suburbs of Llyswen, Eldorado, and South Lakemont fill the valley floor. The map is particularly rich in institutional history, detailing the sprawling grounds of the Hollidaysburg State Hospital, the VA Hospital, and St Bernardines Monastery.
