Louisville is in Kentucky and also on the Ohio River. As an aside, did you know Abraham Lincoln was born in KT. I visited here to check out the Muhammad Ali Museum, but couldn't believe it that it was closed on Mondays - the day we visited! Anyway we banked it for another time. The KT landscape is full of low rolling hills, farmland and forest.
The city is older than most. In fact settlement goes back 1000's of years. However, the city was founded in the late 1700's after the King of France at the time. The waterfront area, near the MA Museum has many old buildings and has been rejuvenated with impressive sculptures and structures. It was unnerving to see planes coming over the high buildings (close to them) ready to land near by. Another city with spaghetti freeway junctions to keep you on your toes. A nice feeling here in this city and just a word on local pronunciation. Louisville should be said as 'Lewerville'!
