About this map

White Hall State Shrine and the surrounding agricultural landscape of northern Madison County define this mid-1960s study. The terrain is deeply etched by the Kentucky River and the meandering path of Otter Creek, which flows past the Otter Creek Ch in the northeast. This era shows the expansion of northern Richmond, with new developments appearing near Arlington and the Madison Country Club.

Transport and education are central to the district's layout, from the Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor to local institutions like Daniel Boone Sch and Madison High Sch. The map preserves the location of rural landmarks such as the Drive-in Theater and Mt Nebo Ch, alongside numerous unnamed cemeteries that offer significant value for genealogical research in this historic Bluegrass region.
