1922 Map of Philipsburg
USGS Topo · Published 1922About this map
Philipsburg stands as a central industrial and transport hub in this 1920s survey, surrounded by a landscape defined by extractive industry and a dense network of country schools. The northern reaches show an intensive mining footprint, from the Cuba Mines near Chester Hill to the Rich Hill Mine and the specialized Buck Creek Clay Mine in the Allegheny Mountains. Transport is dominated by the Central RR of Pennsylvania and the New York Central RR, which follow the winding path of Moshannon Creek, while an Electric Ry connects the core settlements.
