1960 Map of Pittsburgh West

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Ohio River and its industrial Back Channel anchor this detailed study of the Pittsburgh outskirts, revealing the intense density of rail and river commerce during the mid-century. Major infrastructure projects like the Penn Lincoln Parkway intersect with the legacy of local transportation, including the P and L E RR and P C And Y RY rail lines. The landscape is a mix of heavy industrial hubs near Mc Kees Rocks and residential expansion in Dormont and Mt Lebanon.
