About this map

Industrial and residential development along the Ohio River defines this 2010 landscape, where the steel-industry legacy is visible through extensive infrastructure like the Weirton Yards. The river serves as a primary corridor, with Browns Island and Griffen Island situated amidst a network of bridges, including the Fort Steuben Bridge and the Veterans Memorial Bridge. An unusual aviation feature, the Weirton - Steubenville Seaplane Base, highlights the specialized use of the waterway south of Pottery Addition.

Residential neighborhoods such as Marland Heights, Weircrest, and Weirton Heights spread across the terraced terrain, while older postal nodes like the Holidays Cove Post Office point to the area's earlier settlement history. Genealogy researchers can find several established burial grounds, including Saint Pauls Cemetery and Three Springs Cemetery, located near the creek valleys. Further inland, the map shows water management infrastructure like the Harmon Creek Structure Number One Dam, reflecting modern engineering in the rugged hills of the Northern Panhandle.
