2016 Map of New Kensington West
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The Allegheny River defines the corridor of this Pennsylvania landscape, winding past industrial river towns and over Fourteen Mile Island and Twelvemile Island. Settlements like Tarentum, New Kensington, and Springdale follow the river's edge, while the inland hills are marked by the complex topography of White Pine Ridge and Desperation Hollow. Transportation networks are central to the area's development, featuring the B & Le RR tracks and the Pittsburgh Northeast Airport near Russellton. Numerous burial grounds, including the Oakmont-Verona Cem, Saint Clemens Cem, and the unique Penn Forest Natural Burial Park, offer significant genealogical data. The map reveals a transition from dense riverfront communities to the more dispersed residential clusters of Harmarville and Bairdford.
