About this map

Bald Eagle Mountain dominates the northwestern landscape of this Centre County survey, creating a physical divide between the Bald Eagle Creek valley and the Nittany Valley to the southeast. Along the northern corridor, the village of Julian sits at the junction of S Eagle Valley Rd and Julian Pike, while the southern portion of the sheet documents the expanding residential footprint of State College and its suburban satellite communities.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-preserved family and community burial grounds, including Old Pine Hall Cem and Grays Cem. The map captures the varied settlement patterns of the region, from the smaller clusters at Matternville and Waddle to the more developed neighborhoods of Park Forest Village and Overlook Heights. The industrial history of the area is represented by the location of Scotia, situated near Gatesburg Ridge, an area formerly central to local iron ore operations.
