About this map

New Albany and the eastern fringes of Gahanna define this central Ohio landscape during a period of transition in the mid-1960s. The map illustrates a rural-to-suburban shift, with established agriculture in Plain and Jefferson townships meeting the expansion of housing and modern utilities. To the northwest, the Hoover Reservoir provides a major geographic boundary, while the Blendon Woods Metropolitan Park preserves a significant green space along the western edge.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks across the Franklin Co and Licking Co line, including the Jersey Chapel and Maplewood Cem. Cultural and civic centers such as Lincoln Sch and St Pauls Ch appear alongside industrial markers like Compressor Sta and several Gravel Pits. The road network, including Dublin Granville Road and Central College Road, reflects the established transportation corridors that have shaped development in this portion of the state.
