1965 Map of Southwest Columbus

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Scioto River and Olentangy River define the core of this mid-1960s landscape, where industrial infrastructure meets dense residential growth. The eastern edge of the map is dominated by institutional landmarks, including the Ohio State Penitentiary and the expansive grounds of the Columbus State Hospital. This era shows the city pushing westward past Valley View and southward toward Grove City, with a massive grid of suburban streets and new facilities like the Bishop Ready High Sch filling in the territory between established rail lines.
