1957 Map of Swanville

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Presque Isle State Park and the western edge of Erie anchor this coastal landscape during the late 1950s, showing a transition from dense urban development to suburban expansion and rural stream valleys. The shoreline is characterized by recreational and institutional sites, from the grounds of Waldameer Park and the Villa Maria Academy to the seasonal destination of Manchester Beach. Further inland, the map captures the burgeoning suburban identity of Lakewood, Eaglehurst, and West Millcreek, while the southern reaches near Middleboro maintain a more agrarian character defined by the winding course of Walnut Creek and Elk Creek.
