1982 Map of Valley Station

About this map

The ridges and hollows of the Jefferson County Memorial Forest dominate the southern landscape of this 1980s-era topographic survey, where steep terrain like Mitchell Hill and Potato Knob transitions into the growing suburbs of southern Jefferson County. Along the Dixie Hwy corridor, residential developments like Prairie Village and Valley Gardens expand near the industrial presence of Johnsontown. The map reveals the deep-rooted local history of the area through family-named landmarks and cemeteries, including the Risinger Cem, Horine Cem, and McDaniel Cem. Institutional footprints are clearly marked, from the campus of Southwest Jefferson Community College to the southern edge of the Fort Knox Mil Res at the Bullitt County line. This update includes purple revisions documenting residential growth and utility changes like the Sewage Disposal sites and power infrastructure near Windsor Park.
