1960 Map of Crestwood

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Crestwood and Pewee Valley serve as the primary rail hubs along the Louisville and Nashville line in this early 1960s study of the Oldham County and Jefferson County borderlands. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Floyds Fork and its tributaries, such as Currys Fork and Ashers Run, which carve through the undulating topography. Notable institutional landmarks include the Pewee Valley Sanatorium and the Kavanaugh Camp, alongside the St Aloysius Sch and several country churches like Pleasant Grove Ch and Long Run Ch. A unique inclusion is the State Prison Water facility located near the Jefferson County line, reflecting the essential infrastructure of the mid-century era. The map also captures the rural character of communities like Floydsburg and Centerfield, connected by a network of local routes including Flat Rock Road and Todds Point Road.
