1953 Map of New Kensington East

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Industrial and residential development along the Allegheny River defines this landscape in the mid-20th century. Dense urban footprints in Tarentum, Brackenridge, and Natrona contrast with the rugged, mine-scarred hills of Upper Burrell and Plum. The river serves as a primary artery, flanked by the Conrail line and major industrial sites like Alcoa Center. Numerous religious and educational institutions, including St Barnabas Ch and Har Brack High Sch, indicate established neighborhood centers within the river towns.
