1953 Map of Bethlehem

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Ohio River cuts a sweeping bend through this mid-century survey, dividing the riverside town of Bethlehem in Indiana from the steep bluffs of Kentucky. The Indiana shore is characterized by a mix of agricultural flats and dissected uplands, where small communities like Otto and Paynesville are connected by a network of rural roads. A significant industrial footprint is visible at Marble Hill, where a large Substation and a facility marked as under construction signal post-war infrastructural development along the river corridor.
