Louisville grew up on the Ohio falls, where travellers disembarked for the rapids. It's where Lewis and Clark set off for the Pacific, and was once home to meat-processing, distilling, barrel-making and tobacco industries. West Main Street (old Whisky Row) sports the most iron-facade buildings outside of New York's SoHo district, while Old Louisville – especially at St James's Court, Belgravia and Central Park – features street upon street of fine Victorian mansions (no two houses, no two porches, appear the same), some with gas lighting.
