USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
Louisville and Jeffersonville anchor the southwestern corner of this survey, which traces the Ohio River as it winds past early landings like Woolfolk Ldg and Harmony Ldg. The landscape is a network of turnpikes and electric rail lines, reflecting the early 20th-century expansion of the city into surrounding rural communities. Significant institutional landmarks include the Lakeland Asylum and the Kentucky Military Institute, which occupy prominent positions along the rail corridor.
