About this map

Greater Cincinnati International Airport dominates the central landscape of this Northern Kentucky survey, illustrating the significant infrastructure expansion of the early 1980s. The Ohio River curves along the northern and eastern borders, serving as the historical boundary between Hamilton and Boone Counties. Along its banks, traditional river features like the Anderson Ferry and settlements such as Taylorsport and Constance contrast with the modern growth of Florence and Burlington.

Genealogists can locate several family-named landmarks and resting places, including the Col Abraham Depew Grave and Chambers Cem. Transportation networks are well-defined, showing the Baltimore and Ohio and Conrail rail lines alongside the developing interstate interchanges. The map also highlights local institutions like the College of Mt St Joseph and the Latonia Racetrack, providing a detailed look at the region's educational and recreational history.
