USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The confluence of the Allegheny River and Monongahela River forms the Ohio River at the iconic Point State Park, where the historic Fort Pitt once stood. This map captures the industrial and institutional landscape of West Pittsburgh and its suburbs during a period of urban change. Massive landmarks like Three Rivers Stadium and the Western State Penitentiary dominate the riverbanks, while the intricate rail networks of the Baltimore and Ohio RR and Conrail stitch together the industrial corridors of Mc Kees Rocks and Carnegie.
