This is Summerhill Borough, Cambria County, PA.
Brown Lane curves in the upper left hand corner. the houses on the road in the upper right hand corner are on Manor Dr. The road in the lower left hand corner is route 53 (Railroad St.) and the road running almost parallel above it is Tunnel St. The business in the center is a gas station once owner by the Penatzers. The Conemaugh river river runs along route 53 just off the lower left corner. The stone 3-arched bridge carries the trains over both roads (tunnel and Railroad) and the Conemaugh River. The house at the very top of the right hand corner (roof cut off) once belonged to John Costello. A physician originally built the house in the early 1900's. It is on a hill with great views over the center of town. A wood stairway used to go down to the railroad tracks from the house.
