Chapter 2 Physical Environment, Natural and Historic Resources
CHAPTER 2 PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT, NATURAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES INTRODUCTION Plum Borough has numerous natural, historic and cultural resources. This section of the plan will identify those resources and some measures needed to protect, conserve, and preserve them. Historic Resources Plum Borough has several historic structures and sites from the early nineteenth century. These structures and sites provide a link to the borough’s past. The borough has a historical society known as the Allegheny Foothills Historical Society. The historical society’s office and resources are located in the Oliver M. Thompson History Room at the Plum Borough Library. When Allegheny County was created in 1788, Plum was incorporated as one of its seven original townships. In 1956, Plum was reincorporated as a borough. Many Native American tribes once lived in present day Plum. These tribes include the Iroquois, Algonquian, Cherokee, Seneca, Erie, and later the Shawnee and Delaware. There are Native American archeological sites in the borough and trails that the tribes once used still survive in Boyce Park. The last Native American tribe to inhabit the area was the Monongahela Tribe in the 1600’s. Plum Borough’s population has grown from about 6,300 in 1930 to about 30,000 in 2009. This growth was largely due to the advent of the automobile and the expansion of public infrastructure, i.e., sewer and water lines and roadways. Early development in Plum centered on coalmines and oil and gas fields. These natural resources provided employment and spawned the mining towns of Barking, Renton, Unity, and Logans Ferry. These towns still have remnants of miners’ housing and survive today in the form of neighborhoods rather than coal patch towns.

2015 Summer Program and Events Guide
Allegheny County Parks SUMMER 2015 PROGRAM AND EVENT GUIDE “Summer afternoon, summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.” Those words were written by American-English writer Henry James, but I would guess that many of us feel the same way. There’s something about summer which makes us yearn to get outside, tip our faces to the sun, get in the water, and do something. We want to help you in that endeavor, which is why I am proud to present the Summer 2015 Program & Event Guide. Our Allegheny County Parks have something for everyone, and this summer guide includes expanded program offerings. And as we unveiled in the Spring, you can now register for programs online and pay the registration fee at the same time. In the past few years, County Council and I have chosen to invest in our parks and ensure that we are maintaining the assets and resources in our 12,000 acres so that they are there for generations to come. This includes the completion of large scale projects like the opening of the South Park Oval and the re-opening of the North Park Lake Trail, but also means that we have provided additional amenities like new bathrooms at the Wagman Observatory in Deer Lakes Park. If you look around at each of the nine parks, you will see that work has been done and projects are underway to make these facilities even more valuable to our residents and visitors. This summer, enjoy a free concert, visit the pool or a spray park, look at the stars on a dark night, take a class, try a paddle board, or participate in one of the dozens of programs outlined in this guide.

FALL/WINTER 2015/2016 PROGRAM and EVENT GUIDE Fall Is Nearly Upon Us
Allegheny County Parks FALL/WINTER 2015/2016 PROGRAM AND EVENT GUIDE Fall is nearly upon us. It’s always bittersweet. For many of us, it means the end of summer, back to school and time for sweaters, football and apple cider. For our county parks though, it means even more of an opportunity to highlight the amenities and opportunities that make our Allegheny County Parks system such a valuable asset in our region. Our Allegheny County Park Rangers have several months in our parks under their belts now, and their experiences can be seen in the educational and recreational opportunities that they are offering in this guide. If you’ve not had the opportunity to interact with them, consider participating in one of the many programs being offered by the rangers. The Fall Foliage Hike is the perfect chance to enjoy the fall weather and the changing leaves which always signal the coming change of seasons. Our Parks Rangers are expanding beyond our parks too – they have participated as resources in festivals and other events in our community, sharing their background and experiences. The Park Rangers outreach includes to local schools and groups for educational programming. Fall is also the perfect opportunity for you to “live well.” In January 2014, the Live Well Allegheny program was launched that embraces a broad concept of living will which includes physical health, mental wellness, personal and community safety, prevention and preparedness, and much more. Whether you choose to take advantage of a formal class like yoga, or simply utilize our trails and facilities, you can make this fall your time to make a personal pledge to live well.
