1957 Map of Avon

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Talcott Mountain dominates the center of this landscape, forming a dramatic north-south ridge that separates the suburban expansion of West Hartford and Bloomfield from the Farmington River valley. The map documents a period of significant growth, with extensive suburban residential developments shown in purple revisions, particularly near Whitings Corner and along Albany Ave. The western portion of the quadrangle retains a more rural character, centered on the historic campus of Avon Old Farms and the estates of Simsbury.
