2012 Map of Hartford North

About this map

Windsor and the northern reaches of Hartford are defined here by the confluence of the Farmington River and the Connecticut River. This 2012 topographic survey documents a dense urban and suburban landscape shaped by historic institutions and major transportation corridors. The capital city's heritage is visible through sites like the Childrens Village of the Hartford Orphan Asylum and the Ancient Cem, while the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch stands as a local landmark. The map detail highlights the city's academic landscape, including the University of Hartford, Saint Josephs College, and several campuses for the University of Connecticut. Along the waterfront, the Bulkeley Bridge and Founders Bridge connect to East Hartford, while the North Meadows Dike and Colt Pier illustrate the long-standing management of the river's edge. Residential developments like the Stowe Village Housing Project and Dutch Point Colony provide clear markers for community history and urban planning researchers.
