Corn Island (Kentucky)

Corn Island is a now-vanished island in the Ohio River, at head of the Falls of the Ohio, just north of Louisville, Kentucky.
==Geography==
Estimates of the size of Corn Island vary with time as it gradually was eroded and became submerged. A 1780 survey listed its size at . At that point it extended from what is now Louisville's Fourth Street to Fourteenth.
The Louisville Cement Company extracted rock for cement in the 19th century, and the removal of trees from the island contributed to erosion, which combined to sink much of the island by 1895.〔 The island was flooded by the construction of a dam in the 1920s. It now lies permanently underwater.
