1953 Map of Ashland

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The industrial and riverfront activity of Ashland defines this mid-century survey, where the Ohio River serves as a bustling corridor for the Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and Western railroads. In the city's heart, Central Park and landmarks like the Armory stand amid a grid of developed streets, while the surrounding hills show the expansion of neighborhoods like Westwood, Bellefonte, and Fairview. The map captures a transition from urban density to the winding valleys of the Little Sandy River.
