Greater Cincy Map, 1907

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been
--Creedence Clearwater Revival

Interesting 'Map Showing Cincinnati's Principal Industries and Suburbs' circa 1907.

As of yet, no significant urban sprawl. Communities like Hyde Park and Spring Grove marked outer suburbs--peaceful getaways from city bustle.


Also enjoyed tracing road names and paths, particularly away from town.

In addition to the downtown area, industries clustered along the Mill Creek and in Norwood. Not so much today.
