1958 Map of New Castle South

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

New Castle and its southern suburbs anchor this mid-century portrait of industrial Lawrence County, where heavy rail corridors and extractive industries define the landscape. The confluence of the Neshannock River and Shenango river valley serves as a hub for the Erie Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad, which snake through deep-cut valleys and past the New Castle Junction. The transition from the urban density of South New Castle to the outlying townships reveals a landscape shaped by coal and stone, dotted with numerous strip mines and a large quarry near West Pittsburg.
