About this map

The Ohio River curves along the southern edge of this landscape, separating the developing suburbs of Clermont County from the Kentucky shorelines of Melbourne and Camp Springs. In the early 1980s, the area transitioned from the industrial activity of the Gravel Pit near Newtown to the burgeoning residential clusters of Cherry Grove and Withamsville. The map documents a high density of religious and educational institutions, including the St Gregory Seminary, Sacred Heart Seminary, and several parochial schools like St Veronica Sch.

Suburban expansion is evident near the Biggs Shopping Center and along the Clough Pike, while the southern reaches near Locust Corner and New Palestine retain a more rural character defined by creeks like Tenmile Creek and Eightmile Creek. Local history is preserved in sites such as the Township Cem and the Withrow Nature Preserve, which offer a counterpoint to the growing commercial infrastructure and interstate-adjacent developments of the period.
