1958 Map of Essex

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Connecticut River meets the Long Island Sound in this late 1950s survey of the Middlesex County shoreline, where maritime tradition and post-war infrastructure intersect. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the wooded highlands of Cockaponset State Forest and the developed coastal corridor. Modern transportation developments like the Connecticut Turnpike and Interstate 95 cut through the region, bypassing older village centers such as Ivoryton, Centerbrook, and Essex.
