About this map

The Great Miami River flows through the western edge of this mid-1960s landscape, bordering a region of intensifying suburban expansion and industrial transition. To the north, the city of Hamilton and neighboring Fairfield showcase a dense network of residential streets, while the southern portion reveals the planned development of Greenhills and the growth of Forest Park. This period of Ohio's history is marked by the proliferation of community infrastructure, evidenced by numerous institutions like the St Francis Seminary, Seven Hills Sch, and Sacred Heart Sch.

Tracing the boundaries between Butler Co and Hamilton Co, the map documents established rural pockets such as Symmes Corner and New Burlington alongside recreational landmarks like Winton Lake and Lake Gloria. Local genealogical details are preserved in the locations of the Huston Cem and Smiley Cem, while the industrial footprint is visible through the Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsylvania railroads serving the Hamilton Airport vicinity.
