1954 Map of Warren

About this map

The confluence of the Allegheny River and Conewango Creek anchors this mid-century view of northwestern Pennsylvania. In Warren, the landscape is defined by industrial infrastructure, including an Oil Refinery and several Oil Field areas that speak to the region's long petroleum history. The river corridor serves as a busy transit artery, shared by the New York Central and Pennsylvania Railroad as they pass through Starbrick and Jackson Crossing. Beyond the urban centers of North Warren and Venturetown, the terrain rises toward Yankee Bush Hill and the protected lands of the Allegheny National Forest. Cultural landmarks of the era are visible near the riverbanks, including the Drive-in Theater west of town and the Warren Airport, while genealogists can locate several burial grounds like Oakland Cem and St Josephs Cem overlooking the river bends.
