1950 Map of Lexington West

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The rolling Bluegrass region west of Lexington is defined by its world-class equine heritage and significant institutional presence in the mid-20th century. Renowned Thoroughbred estates like Calumet Farm and Idle Hour Farm, complete with its dedicated Idle Hour Siding on the railroad, anchor the rural landscape. The map captures a transition where the urban core of the city, including the University of Kentucky and the historic Lexington Cemetery, meets the sprawling pastures of Bluegrass Field.
