2013 Map of Coletown

About this map

The suburban expansion of southeast Lexington meets the rural Bluegrass landscape in this early 21st-century record. Established neighborhoods like Southeastern Hills, Gamesway, and Jonestown demonstrate a dense residential footprint characterized by winding streets such as Appian Way and Tatesbrook Dr. In contrast, the southern and eastern portions of the map retain a pastoral character defined by small crossroads and creek valleys. Coletown and East Hickman sit along the winding path of E Hickman Cr, while Walnut Hill and Pricetown occupy higher ground to the north. This transition is further marked by water infrastructure, including Lexington Reservoir Number 4 and Reservoir Number 3, which serve the growing population centers. Along the eastern edge, the topography drops sharply toward the Kentucky River, where Raven Run and Elk Lick Cr carve through the limestone landscape before joining the river.
