1969 Map of Kelly

About this map

Cavanaugh Hills dominate the northern landscape of this Christian County quadrangle, where the transition from rural Kentucky uplands to the growing edge of Hopkinsville is clearly documented. The southern portion of the map captures the mid-century expansion of the city, including the University of Kentucky Community College campus and the industrial presence of a Filtration Plant and Substation. This era shows a community in flux, as traditional rural landmarks like Blooming Grove Ch and Concord Ch stand alongside the modern engineering of the Pennyrile Parkway and its prominent Tollgate Interchange 12. A string of managed water bodies, including Lake Morris, Lake Tandy, and Lake Boxley, suggest a landscape heavily modified for local utility and recreation. The Seaboard Coast Line tracks parallel the parkway, maintaining the historic rail connection through the village of Kelly.
