2013 Map of Keene

About this map

The settlement of Keene anchors this portion of Jessamine and Fayette counties, situated at a junction of early pikes and lanes. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Bluegrass region, where Clear Cr and its tributary E Fork Clear Cr drain a terrain marked by named elevations such as Meridian Hill. Small communities like Pinckard, Dixon Town, and Troy are interconnected by a dense network of historical routes, including Carpenter Pike and Delaneys Ferry Rd, reflecting the area's agricultural and transit legacy. Further east, the terrain transitions toward Pleasant Hill and the drainage of Sinking Cr, while Cave Spring Cr carves through the central hills. This survey documents the intersection of rural residential expansion and traditional Kentucky thoroughfares in the early twenty-first century.
