1957 Map of Avon

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Talcott Mountain dominates the central landscape of this mid-century survey, creating a dramatic natural barrier between the Farmington River valley and the developing suburbs of West Hartford. Along the river's winding course, the villages of Simsbury, Weatogue, and Avon are connected by the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad line. The map highlights the area's transition into a regional educational and recreational hub, featuring institutions like Avon Old Farms, Ethel Walker Sch, and the La Sallette Novitiate.
