1987 Map of Great Barrington

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Housatonic River winds through this 1980s landscape, anchoring the commercial and civic life of Great Barrington. This era shows a community balancing its industrial past along the Boston and Maine Railroad with growing institutional roles, marked by the presence of Fairview Hosp and the campus of Simons Rock Bard College. Smaller settlements like Van Deusenville and Risingdale line the river valley, while the western reaches include the distinct hamlets of North Egremont and South Egremont. Significant protected lands are visible, from the Monument Mountain Reservation to the high peaks of Beartown Mountain. The inclusion of the Appalachian Trail crossing through East Mountain State Forest highlights the region's enduring character as a destination for outdoor recreation and conservation near the Columbia Co border.
