1959 Map of Danville

About this map

Danville serves as the focal point of this 1959 revision, showing the city's mid-century expansion through neighborhoods like Caldwell Manor and Green Acres. The presence of Centre College and the State School for the Deaf anchors the urban core, while the Southern railroad line facilitates the local economy. To the west, the landscape transitions into the agricultural reaches of the Salt River valley, where historic rural markers like the Mud Meetinghouse and Salt River Cemetery indicate long-standing community roots.
