About this map

The Monongahela River and Youghiogheny River valleys form the industrial heart of this mid-1980s landscape, winding through steel towns like Duquesne, McKeesport, and Clairton. East of the immediate Pittsburgh urban core, the terrain rises toward the formidable ridges of Chestnut Ridge and Laurel Hill. This period captures the region's transport network at a point of transition, with major rail lines including Conrail and the Chessie System serving coal and manufacturing hubs alongside the established path of the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
