1954 Map of Princeton East

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The eastern edges of Princeton and its surrounding Caldwell County farmland are defined by the heavy infrastructure of the mid-century, most notably the Illinois Central railroad lines and the Western Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Substation. The landscape transitions from the developed limits of the town toward the industrial and agricultural hubs at Cedar Bluff, where the large Cedar Bluff Quarry and Railroad Lake mark the local terrain. Small, dispersed settlements like Scottsburg and McGowan serve as nodes along the rail and road network, while the northern reaches include the protected Pennyrile Wildlife Management Area Jones-Keeney Tract.
