1960 Map of Pittsburgh East

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Industrial corridors along the Allegheny River and Monongahela River anchor this 1960 survey of Pittsburgh and its eastern suburbs. The landscape is defined by the dense rail infrastructure of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and Pennsylvania Railroad, serving heavy riverside industry while residential neighborhoods like Squirrel Hill, East Liberty, and Shadyside occupy the higher terrain. Massive greenspaces including Schenley Park, Frick Park, and the sprawling Allegheny Cemetery provide a sharp contrast to the urban grid.
