1961 Map of Burlington

About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep valley between the hills of northern Kentucky and the suburban expansion of Cincinnati, defining the geography of this 1961 survey. On the Kentucky side, the transition from rural Boone County to a regional transportation hub is evident in the sprawling grounds of the Greater Cincinnati Airport. The river remains a primary corridor for commerce and travel, featuring the active Anderson Ferry and the dual lines of the New York Central and Baltimore and Ohio railroads tracing the northern bank through Sayler Park and Delhi.
