1964 Map of New Florence

About this map

Industrial and rural landscapes converge along the Conemaugh River and Blacklick Creek in this mid-1960s study of the Indiana and Westmoreland county border. Extensive extraction activity is visible throughout the terrain, with numerous Strip Mines and specialized infrastructure such as a Compressor Station and Substation supporting the region's energy economy. This era shows the local infrastructure in detail, from the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks following the river valley to the United Joint High School serving the surrounding communities.
