About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep bend through the heart of this region, separating the urban centers of New Albany and Clarksville on the northern bank from Louisville and Portland to the south. The river's industrial and navigational legacy is anchored by the McAlpine Dam and the complex infrastructure of the Falls of the Ohio. Transit across this vital waterway is facilitated by the Sherman Minton Bridge and the George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge, connecting the established neighborhoods of Silver Hills and Shawneeland.

To the northwest, the terrain rises toward the knobs, where the Indiana University Southeast Campus and Floyds Knobs mark the transition from the river valley to higher ground. This area is dense with historical sites, including the New Albany National Cemetery, Blackiston Mill, and several large burial grounds like Fairview Cemetery and Graceland Cemetery. The map also captures the transportation landscape of the late 2000s, featuring Haps Airport and the sprawling rail infrastructure of Youngtown Yards.
