Pomeroy and its neighboring river towns serve as the industrial and commercial anchor for this stretch of the Ohio River during the mid-20th century. The landscape is a complex mix of river-level urban development and upland extraction, where extensive Strip Mines and Tipple Mines dominate the ridges behind the settlements. The transportation infrastructure is particularly dense, featuring three major rail lines including the Penn Central, Baltimore and Ohio, and Chesapeake and Ohio, which serviced the coal and manufacturing interests of Middleport, Mason, and Hartford.
