About this map

The industrial and residential growth of northern Hamilton and southern Butler Counties is captured in this mid-1960s revision, where the landscape is defined by a dense intersection of historical rail lines and modern interstate development. Rail networks such as the Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio, and New York Central crisscross the valley of Mill Creek, serving established industrial zones like the U S Reservation Sharonville Depot.

Suburban expansion is evident in the emerging clusters around Tri-County Shopping Center and the village of Glendale. The map preserves the names of smaller, older hamlets such as Port Union, Rialto, and Gano alongside newer institutional landmarks like Lakota High Sch and Princeton High Sch. Significant community sites range from the Oak Hill Cemetery to the recreational waters of Sharon Lake, illustrating the post-war transformation of this corridor between Cincinnati and Dayton.
