1914 Map of Windber
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
Windber and the coal-rich highlands of Shade and Paint townships dominate this landscape at the edge of the Allegheny Mountains. The industrial pulse of the region is evident in the dense rail networks of the Pennsylvania RR and the Baltimore and Ohio RR, which serve the mining settlements of Jerome and Hooversville. The massive Quemahoning Reservoir sits as a primary water source for the region's steel-producing neighbors, while smaller industrial landmarks like the Old Shade Furnace and a Shot Factory near Grand View point to a legacy of iron and munitions production.
