1948 Map of Burlington

About this map

The eastern shores of Lake Champlain define this mid-century portrait of Vermont’s largest city and its industrial surroundings. The downtown grid of Burlington shows a dense concentration of civic life, including the City Hall, Post Office, and Courthouse, while the northern waterfront is marked by industrial infrastructure like Gas Tanks and a Refinery. To the east, the Winooski River carves through the landscape at the Winooski Gorge, where the historic presence of a Lime Kiln and several Quarries point to the area's long-standing extractive industries.
