1957 Map of Avon

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Farmington River winds through the heart of the Farmington Valley, defining a landscape of traditional New England settlements and expanding mid-century institutions. In the western hills, Massacor State Forest and Stratton Brook State Park preserve the wooded heights of Onion Mtn, while the eastern side is dominated by the steep ridge of King Phillip Mtn and the extensive Hartford Reservoir No 6 system. The map documents a significant academic presence, anchored by the Avon Old Farms Sch and the Ethel Walker Sch, alongside smaller neighborhood facilities like the Tootin Hill Sch. Settlement patterns are marked by historic crossroads such as Hisop Corner and Crowleys Corner, while the purple revision layers reveal the post-war suburban growth of West Hartford and Avon.
