About this map

Industrial and educational growth along the Kanawha River defines the landscape during the mid-century development of the state capital region. The massive Naval Ordnance Plant in South Charleston stands as a primary landmark, reflecting the area's strategic manufacturing importance. Residential expansion is visible in neighborhoods like Forest Hills and South Hills, while the presence of numerous neighborhood facilities, including Roxalana Sch, O'Dell Sch, and Jefferson Jr High Sch, illustrates the density of the post-war community.
