1952 Map of Maysville West

About this map

The Ohio River valley dominates this mid-century landscape, where the bustling riverfront of Maysville serves as the focal point of commerce and transport. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor tracks the river's southern bank, illustrating the critical link between industrial rail lines and Kentucky's waterway economy. Across the water, South Ripley marks the Ohio side of the boundary, while the river itself features landmarks such as the Charleston Bar and a recorded normal pool elevation of 461 feet.
