About this map

The Ohio River dominates this landscape where the borders of Ohio and Kentucky meet, serving as a primary corridor for both energy and transport. The William H. Zimmer Nuclear Power Station and the massive Capt Anthony Meldahl Locks and Dam anchor the riverfront, highlighting the industrial engineering that reshaped the river's character in the late 20th century. Away from the water, the terrain rises into the dissected plateaus of Washington and Franklin townships, where family history is etched into the landscape at Vesper Cem and McKendree Cem. Small settlements like Neville, Chilo, and Willow Grove line the banks, connected by the CSX Transportation line and several local landmarks, including the Cemetery Chapel and the Landing Strip near the river's edge.
