2022 Map of Louisville West

About this map

The Ohio River forms a natural western boundary for this urban landscape, where the industrial and residential developments of Louisville meet the rolling topography of Jefferson Co. This survey illustrates the dense neighborhood structures of Parkland, Shively, and Pleasure Ridge Park, alongside major educational institutions like the University of Louisville. The map reveals a complex web of transport and industry, from the Kentucky & Indiana Terminal RR to the drainage networks of Paddy Run and the Southern Ditch. For local historians and genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial grounds, including the large Greenwood Cem and Louisville Memorial Park, as well as smaller, family-associated sites such as the Prince Family Cem and Farnsley Cem. These landmarks, along with many smaller residential subdivisions like Jacobs Addition and Hunters Trace, provide a high-resolution look at the city’s southern and western expansion.
