1965 Map of Southwest Columbus

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The confluence of the Scioto River and OlentangY River anchors this 1960s industrial and urban study of Franklin County. Significant institutional presence characterizes the landscape, from the sprawling Columbus State Hospital and Ohio State Penitentiary to the Columbus Workhouse near the riverbanks. The expansion of Columbus is captured through purple-tinted urban extensions, showing the mid-century growth of residential pockets like Briggsdale and Valley View.
