1965 Map of Lexington East

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Lexington expands eastward in the mid-1960s, showing a landscape where traditional Bluegrass horse country meets rapid mid-century suburban growth. The urban core is anchored by institutions like University of Kentucky and Transylvania University, while the red-tinted development reach extends through neighborhoods such as Chevy Chase, Idle Hour, and Thoroughbred Acres. The influence of the region's agricultural roots is evident at the University of Kentucky Agricultural Experimental Station and the sprawling Lexington Country Club.
