Description

View of New Brighton, Beaver County, P.A., 1901 / drawn & published by T. M. Fowler & James B. Moyer.

This panoramic print of New Brighton, Pennsylvania was drawn by Thaddeus Mortimer Fowler and published by T. M. Fowler & James B. Moyer in 1901. New Brighton was established in the early 1800's on the banks of the Beaver River. The borough was incorporated in 1838 and received its first post office in 1849 with B. B. Chamberlin as postmaster. An industrious farming community, New Brighton maintained several mills including the famous Quaker Mill. It also prospered with brick works and glassmakers. The Standard Horse Nail Company was a fixture in nearby Fallston from 1872 until the works burned down in 1884 and the operation was moved to New Brighton. The Logan & Strobridge Iron Company began making iron novelties in 1874. The Sherwood Brothers Pottery began operations in 1879. The firm manufactured sewer pipes, sinks and other clay products. The Dawes & Myler Enameled Ironware Works was organized in 1887. The company manufactured pump cylinders and enameled iron sinks and bathtubs. In 1896, the American Porcelain Company began its operations in New Brighton. Stephen Foster once lived in New Brighton in a house on the southwest corner of 10th St. and Seventh Avenue.

The map from 1901 includes streets, buildings, bridges and railroad lines.
