1953 Map of Cincinnati

About this map

The Ohio River corridor serves as the anchor for this mid-century look at the tri-state region, connecting Cincinnati, Covington, and Newport. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the era, with the Pennsylvania RR and Baltimore and Ohio RR spidering out toward industrial centers like Dayton, Hamilton, and Middletown. While the urban centers show significant growth, the map also highlights the strategic importance of the surrounding countryside, featuring massive military installations such as Fort Benjamin Harrison, Camp Atterbury, and the Jefferson Proving Ground.
