ANSWERS: 1

The population of Shippingport, Kentucky is of 600, but the digging of the Louisville and Portland Canal in 1825 made the peninsula an island, allowing ships to bypass the Falls and, by extension, Shippingport. The town dwindled until the federal government acquired the remaining private property there in 1958 to widen the canal, evicting the remaining families, some of whom had lived there for over a century.
