1963 Map of Charlestown

About this map

The Indiana Arsenal dominates the southeastern quadrant of this region, reflecting a landscape heavily defined by mid-century military infrastructure along the Ohio River. Located in Clark County, the city of Charlestown serves as a central hub, surrounded by a network of smaller communities like Speed, Sellersburg, and Prather. This era shows a transition from rural agricultural land to industrial and military use, evidenced by the presence of Storage Bins, multiple Water Tanks, and expansive tailings near the local Quarry.
