About this map

The Ohio River and Tennessee River converge in this 2013 landscape, defining the industrial and residential growth of the Paducah area. Across the waters, the Illinois shore remains largely dominated by floodplains and backwaters like Allard Lake and Loon Lake, contrasted by the developed Kentucky side where neighborhoods such as Littleville, Tyler, and Woodlawn stretch toward the riverbanks. The Clark Memorial Bridge provides the primary link between these shores, passing over Livingston Point.

Genealogists and local historians can find numerous burial sites including Maplelawn Cem and Herzog Cem. The map detail traces the path of the Clarks River as it meanders through the southern portion of the quadrangle, passing near settlements like Reidland and Epperson. Notable river features like the Devils Washboard and Paducah Towhead highlight the navigational character of these significant American waterways.
