USGS Topo · Published 1912

About this map

The Housatonic River and Naugatuck River converge at the heart of this late-19th-century survey, defining a region of early industrial growth and established village life. The concentration of development in Birmingham, Derby, Ansonia, and Shelton illustrates the era's reliance on river power and rail connectivity. The Naugatuck Division New Haven and Derby Railroad and the New York and New England Railroad are shown threading through the landscape, linking the valley floor with upland interior settlements.
