St. Vincent College and the neighboring Saint Vincent Shaft anchor the central landscape of this Westmoreland County study. The city of Latrobe dominates the eastern edge, where the Norfolk Southern rail line follows the winding course of Loyalhanna Creek. This 2016 survey documents the modern footprint of numerous historic coal-patch towns and industrial settlements, including Luxor, Hostetter, and Hannastown. Local history and genealogy researchers can locate several significant burial grounds such as Saint Xavier Cem and Calvary Hill Cem. The industrial legacy of the region is evident in the water management systems, from the Unity Reservoir to the Marguerite Reservoir, while modern transportation is represented by the expansive Arnold Palmer Regional Airport.
