  • Allegheny's Riverfronts
    ALLEGHENY’S RIVERFRONTS A Progress Report on Municipal Riverfront Development in Allegheny County DECEMBER 2010 Allegheny County Allegheny’s Riverfronts Dear Friends: In Allegheny County, we are known for our rivers. In fact, our rivers have repeatedly been in the national spotlight – during the Forrest L. Wood Cup and Pittsburgh G-20 Summit in 2009, and during World Environment Day in 2010. We are fortunate to have more than 185 miles of riverfront property along the Allegheny, Monongahela, Ohio and Youghiogheny Rivers. Our riverfronts provide opportunities for recreation, conservation and economic development. Providing access to our waterways has always been a key priority and we have been very successful in connecting communities through our trail and greenway system. Through partnerships with businesses, foundations and trail groups, we are on target to complete the Great Allegheny Passage along the Monongahela River before the end of 2011. This trail has been improving the economy and quality of life in towns throughout the Laurel Highlands and Southwestern Pennsylvania, and now its benefits will spread north through the Mon Valley and into the City of Pittsburgh. Our riverfronts provide opportunities for greening our region through the use of new trees, rain gardens and riverside vegetation that aid in flood control, improved water quality and a more natural experience. Allegheny County riverfronts have also always been great places to live. More people will be able to experience riverfront living with the development of communities such as Edgewater at Oakmont, which promises to be one of the best new neighborhoods in the region. I am so proud of all that we have accomplished along our riverfronts and excited about all that is yet to come.

    Essay: “Trees of Western Pennsylvania” W.E. Hamilton D.Y. Sillman Penn State University This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution‐Noncommercial‐No Derivative Works 3.0 license. It may be distributed and shared, with attribution, but not altered or used commercially in any way. “Trees of Western Pennsylvania” The first Europeans to see Western Pennsylvania had to be overwhelmed by the extreme “treeness” of the place. Gigantic white pines and hemlocks, immense oaks and chestnuts, and a staggering array of maples, beech, ash, cherry, birch, poplar and more filled almost all of the physical space of this vast wilderness. The trees covered the valleys, the hillsides, and the mountain slopes. Trees grew in the wet‐muck soils of swamps and wetlands and on the bare rocks that capped the ridge tops. The trees covered the rich, fertile soils of the bottomlands and the thin, acidic soils of the mountains. It is estimated that 95% of the 29 million acres of what is now Pennsylvania was covered with forest (USDA 2004). The “Primary” Forests Few early explorers or settlers in Western Pennsylvania recorded detailed observations about the types of trees that made up the vast forests that surrounded them. Some early journals, though, along with land survey notes, land company description flyers, and saw mill records are available, though, to piece together a tentative picture of what the undisturbed forest of Western Pennsylvania looked like. In southern Pennsylvania, the ridges and valleys described by Charles Mason in his journals from the 1763 Mason and Dixon survey expedition were dense with hemlocks (which they called “spruces,” not an uncommon error of the time).

  • Annual Report Mission Statement
    PENNSYLVANIA'S Laurel Highlands 2019 Annual Report Mission Statement The Laurel Highlands works to enhance the economic growth and quality of life for the area by serving its community as a collaborative leader in the promotion and development of the region as a preferred tourism destination. Message from the Chairman Dear LHVB Partner, As many of you know, 2019 not only concluded a decade of growth for the LHVB, but it was also a year of great success. Room tax collections exceeded projections, allowing the Board of Directors to approve more than $200,000 in additional funding that went toward highly-visible branded summer and winter campaigns in the D.C. market. Occupancy rates increased from 2018 and state impact studies suggest a continued trend toward record- setting impact figures for the region. The LHVB staff and Board of Directors completed a strategic planning initiative, laying out the roadmap for bureau efforts for the next one to three years. Part of the outline included objectives to be a recognizable, well-respected leader in the tourism industry, to be accessible to visitors and partners and to accomplish a more visible physical presence. I am pleased to report that the bureau started to address these objectives immediately with the purchase of a new building located in Ligonier. This property will allow for the expansion of the LHVB office space and staff, a visitor center space located directly on the Diamond, space to expand retail sales, and, most importantly, visibility to residents, visitors, and all of our regional tourism assets. The new office will put the LHVB on the map as a resource and strong force in the community, strengthening the position of the LHVB for years to come.

  • Incision of the Youghiogheny River Through the Laurel Highlands
    Incision of the Youghiogheny River through the Laurel Highlands determined by a new river terrace stratigraphic age model, Ohiopyle State Park, southwestern Pennsylvania 5 Kurak, E.1, Pazzaglia, F. J.1, Li, C. X.2, Patching, A.1, Shaulis, J.3, Corbett, L.4, Bierman, P.4, Nelson, M.5, and Rittenour, T.5 1Earth and Environmental Sciences, Lehigh University 2Earth, Ocean, and Environment, University of Delaware 3Pennsylvania Geological Survey 10 4Community Cosmogenic Lab, University of Vermont 5Luminescense Lab, Utah State University Abstract New surficial mapping and dating of alluvial deposits along the Youghiogheny River in 15 southwestern Pennsylvania has generated a new terrace stratigraphic model linking well-known deposits of the Carmichaels Formation with terraces further upstream through Ohiopyle State Park. Flights of four to six terraces are found in three distinct zones with gradients that are subparallel to the channel, including a steep convex reach of the river. Numeric ages obtained from 25 terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide (TCN) samples and one optically stimulated 20 luminescence (OSL) sample constrains the timing of terrace genesis on the Youghiogheny River, over the past 1.2 Ma, with terrace deposition coinciding with glacial climates. TCN burial and isochron ages of ~610 ka and ~300-350 ka are used to construct long-term incision rates ranging from ~20 m/Myrs upstream of Ohiopyle where the channel gradient and subparallel terrace profiles are gentle to ~50 m/Myrs downstream of Ohiopyle where the river profile is steeper in a 25 broad convex knickzone. There were at least two base level falls totaling ~81 m conflated in the knickzone between Ohiopyle and Connellsville, the top of which includes Ohiopyle Falls and is retreating at a rate of ~1 cm/yr.
