The Ohio River corridor and its industrial-transportation legacy dominate this map of the Northern Panhandle, where the river separates West Virginia from Ohio. Historically significant river crossings, including the iconic Wheeling Suspension Bridge and the Fort Henry Bridge, connect Wheeling and Wheeling Island to western neighbors like Bridgeport and Aetnaville. The topography is defined by the steep valleys of Wheeling Creek and its tributaries, such as Little Wheeling Creek and Middle Wheeling Creek, which served as the primary conduits for rail and road development.
