1960 Map of Pittsburgh West

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Ohio River industrial corridor and the rugged hills of western Allegheny County are captured here at a moment of mid-century maturity. Major institutional landmarks anchor the landscape, from the riverside Western State Penitentiary and Allegheny General Hospital to the sprawl of the Woodville State Hospital further south. The convergence of the Allegheny River and Monongahela River marks the eastern edge of the survey, where Point State Park stands as a focal point of urban renewal.
