1968 Map of Sutherland

About this map

The city of Owensboro dominates the northwestern corner of this landscape, showcasing a mid-century period of expansion characterized by the presence of Kentucky Wesleyan College, Legion Park, and several parochial institutions like Our Lady of Lourdes Sch. Beyond the urban core, the landscape transitions into the broad, low-lying Jackson Flats, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad cuts a straight path toward the rural community of Sutherland. This transition from the structured street grids of Beltline and Fairview Drive to the winding rural routes like Old Hartford Road reflects the regional shift from city center to agricultural hinterland.
