About this map

Uniontown serves as the focal point of this Fayette County survey, where the historic National Pike intersects with a landscape defined by coal heritage and industrial expansion. The map detail highlights the density of the area's spiritual and civic life, from the Saint Mary's Nativity Cem to the sprawling grounds of Sylvan Heights Memorial Gardens. To the southeast, the terrain rises toward the ridge, encompassing the Fort Necessity National Battlefield and the prominent Jumonville Rocks, offering a clear view of the geographic barriers that shaped early American military movements.

Industrial and educational landmarks are prominent, including Lemont Furnace and the Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Fayette- Eberly Campus. The northern reaches show a network of smaller communities like Juniata and Monarch, connected by a web of small runs such as Bute Run and Redstone Creek. This document provides a look at the modern footprint of these historic settlements as they existed in the mid-2010s.
