1961 Map of Deep River

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Connecticut River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a wide path past historic riverfront settlements and deep wooded preserves. On the eastern bank, Gillette Castle State Park stands atop the heights, while the valley floor below reveals a complex network of tidal flats and islands like Lord Island and Rich Island. The 1961 survey (with 1971 updates) captures the transition from traditional river industry to a landscape of recreation and preservation, evidenced by the numerous state forests and parks including Haddam Meadows State Park and Cockaponset State Forest.
