Ua94/6/1 Townsquares In Southcentral Kentucky, Peter Momcilovich

Student/Alumni Personal Papers

Research paper for Geography 500 class.

Kentucky squares, although small, serve that same basic function. Town squares of southcentral Kentucky are similar to the courthouse squares of Virginia county seats. Town squares of southcentral Kentucky, with slightly varying form, are of two major types. The square in small Kentucky towns takes on more significance, than a square in a large city.
