1978 Map of Barre West

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Winooski River and the Central Vermont rail corridor define the industrial and transit backbone of the Barre-Montpelier area in the late 1970s. This map illustrates the vital connections between Barre, South Barre, and Berlin Corners, anchored by the Edward F Knapp State Airport. The landscape is a mix of granite-related industry, evidenced by the Quarry labels, and historic settlement patterns represented by numerous burial grounds such as Hope Cem, St Monica Cem, and the West Hill Cem. The topographic detail highlights the significant elevation changes between the river valleys and peaks like Paine Mtn and Irish Hill. Institutional footprints are prominent, including the Union High Sch and several radio towers, reflecting the region's role as a population and communication hub for Washington and Orange Counties.
