About this map

Wheeling dominates the landscape along the Ohio River, where a complex network of infrastructure bridges the waterway and connects various neighborhoods and islands. The city’s geography is defined by its industrial and residential layers, from North Wheeling and East Wheeling to the higher elevations of Mozart Meadows and Winfred Knoll. Notable landmarks include the Wheeling Suspension Bridge and Mount de Chantal, alongside established institutions like Wheeling Jesuit Univ and the West Virginia Northern Community Coll.

A dense concentration of cemeteries, such as Greenwood Cem and Mt Calvary Cem, reflects the long-standing community history of the region. The map also traces the winding courses of Wheeling Creek and Warden Run, which cut through the hills. Across the river in Ohio, Martins Ferry and Bridgeport mirror the development on the West Virginia side, while landforms like McMahon Bar and Boggs Island mark the river's path.
