Character of a Steel Mill City: Four Historic Neighborhoods of Johnstown, Pennsylvania
Johnstown is one of many communities in the western Pennsylvania 'rust belt' that were dependent on a single, contracting industry. One strategy developed to help rebuild these local economies is the America's Industrial Heritage Project (AIHP), a federally funded program focusing on nine western Pennsylvania counties. AIHP's primary purpose is to develop the past as a component of promoting regional tourism, salvaging the industrial economy as a resource for another kind of product. This study is part of that effort. Research was conducted in the summer of 1988 to document specific buildings; the history of the city of Johnstown has been written to contextualize and highlight its built environment. Thorough documentation of all of the city's historic neighborhoods would require several years; therefore, the first summer-long project focused on four historic representative neighborhoods.
