USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
The confluence of the Ohio River, Tennessee River, and Cumberland River dominates this mid-1980s landscape, illustrating a region shaped by major twentieth-century hydraulic engineering. From the industrial hub of Paducah to the riverside town of Metropolis, the map traces the critical infrastructure of the river economy, including the Smithland Locks and Dam and the massive impoundments of Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley created by the Kentucky Dam and Barkley Dam.
