1981 Map of Covington

About this map

The Ohio River acts as the central artery for this urban corridor, dividing the industrial and residential reaches of Cincinnati from the riverfront cities of Covington, Ludlow, and Bromley. The map details a landscape of heavy infrastructure, from the Riverfront Stadium and a dense network of downtown Cincinnati streets to the massive rail yards and interchanges serving the Sou, Conrail, and CSX lines. South of the river, the terrain climbs into the hills of Park Hills and Fort Mitchell, where post-war suburban growth is evidenced by numerous schools like St Agnes Sch and institutions such as Thomas More College.
