1966 Map of Mingoville

About this map

Howard Reservoir dominates the northern valley of this 1960s landscape, where Blanchard Creek and Bald Eagle Creek meet beneath the steep slopes of Bald Eagle Mountain. The map reveals a transition in the local economy, showing active industrial sites like a Shale Pit and Quarry alongside the Furnace Ruins near Curtin. Agriculture and recreation define the central plains of Nittany Valley, anchored by the Nittany Country Club and the small settlements of Zion and Mingoville.
