2019 Map of Oakdale

About this map

Robinson Run and Montour Run define the dendritic drainage patterns of western Allegheny County, where suburban expansion meets legacy industrial corridors. The southern portion of the sheet is anchored by the borough of Oakdale, a valley settlement historically shaped by the rail lines that follow the water's edge toward McDonald. This area is dense with genealogical markers, including the Noblestown Presbyterian Cem and Saint Patrick's Cem near the village of Noblestown. Further north, the landscape shifts toward the massive infrastructure of the Pittsburgh International Airport and the educational campus of the Community College of Allegheny County - West Hills Center. The map captures a moment of modern development in Coraopolis Heights and Beechcliff, where new residential streets weave between established cemeteries like Montour Cem and Holy Souls Cem.
