1958 Map of Hampden

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Wilbraham Mountains dominate the central topography of this mid-century survey, dividing the developing suburbs of eastern Springfield from the agricultural and institutional landscapes of Hampden and Wilbraham. In the north, the campus of Wilbraham Academy and the Wilbraham Regional High School anchor the community near Mileoak Corner. The landscape transitions from the residential street grids of Sixteen Acres to the more dispersed settlements of Baptist Village and North Somers, reflecting the era's suburban expansion into former farmland. Local industry and recreation are noted through features like the State Game Farm, the East Longmeadow Rod and Gun Club, and various gravel and sand pits. The southern portion of the map crosses into Connecticut, showing the rural character of Somers and Stafford near landmarks like Hall Hill and the Landing Field.
