1923 Map of Bowling Green
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
Bowling Green serves as the focal point for this early 1920s survey of south-central Kentucky, where the Louisville and Nashville RR bisects the landscape near Memphis Junction. The intricate meandering of the Barren River and its major tributaries, including Drake Creek and Bays Fork, dictates the region's transport patterns, with numerous river crossings and landings visible before modern bridge infrastructure dominated. Local commerce and community life in this era were centered around small rural nodes such as Cassadays Store, Alvaton, and Allen Springs.
