 Pennsylvania Department, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh
Allegheny County in southwestern Pennsylvania today has one of the outstanding county parks systems in the nation, but in the 1920s, North and South Parks were created, and later in the 1960s, when the regional parks were added, county officials faced the hard decisions and turmoil that all visionaries of public lands must confront.
As much as half of the park is still undeveloped, but long-range plans call for the restoration of the Carpenter homestead--a log house, spring house and barn--and an interpretive center on the life of the pioneers.
The park maps shown on this website are part of the fold-out map, developed by Carnegie Magazine, the publication of Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh, as a supplement to "The Allegheny County Parks." The Allegheny County Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation provided information for the park maps and the magazine article.
