2015 Map of Collinsville

About this map

The Farmington River carves a central path through this Connecticut landscape, anchoring the historic industrial and residential cores of Collinsville and Unionville. This 2015 update illustrates how the valley's steep topography, defined by landmarks like Rattlesnake Hill and Sweetheart Mtn, has historically funneled development along the water and the primary corridors of Albany Tpke and Litchfield Tpke. The vast Nepaug Reservoir dominates the center of the sheet, surrounded by protected terrain and the Huckleberry Hills Trails. Local history is deeply embedded in the rural and suburban fabric through established settlements like Canton Center and Puddle Town, as well as numerous sites of genealogical interest. These include Saint Patricks Cem, Hillside Cem, and Greenwood Cem, along with the suggestive Schoolhouse Hill near Burlington. The map traces a mix of preserved open space and residential growth near Silvermine Acres and Cherry Park.
