1953 Map of Oakdale

About this map

The Greater Pittsburgh Airport and its sprawling runways dominate the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the transitioning industrial terrain of western Allegheny County. While the airport represents a new era of infrastructure, the surrounding hills are heavily marked by extensive strip mining operations and local coal history, seen in settlements like Cliff Mine and Noblestown. The corridor between Imperial and Oakdale is a dense network of early transportation routes, including the Montour RR and the Pennsylvania RR, which served the region's extraction industries and small mill towns.
