1968 Map of Franklin

About this map

The Franklin city limits expand across the landscape in the late 1960s, showing the intersection of industrial growth and rural tradition. The corridor along the Louisville and Nashville railroad serves as the spine for development, connecting the downtown grid to local institutions like the Franklin-Simpson High Sch and a nearby Drive-in Theater. To the south, the terrain transitions into the agricultural borderlands between Kentucky and Tennessee, where the Kentucky Tennessee state line cuts through small communities such as Mitchellville and Black Jack.
