Fairmount Park and the winding Schuylkill River anchor this dense urban survey, which captures the city during a period of massive infrastructure growth and industrial maturity. The map documents the extensive rail network under Conrail and the heavy concentration of civic and medical institutions, from the Museum of Art and Temple University to the sprawling State Hospital for the Insane. In South Philadelphia, the transition from sports culture at Veterans Stadium and Kennedy Stadium to the maritime industry of the U S Naval Shipyard is clearly delineated.
