About this map

Hartford stands at the center of this 2018 survey, where the Connecticut River meets a complex network of smaller waterways including Meadow Brook and the North Branch Park River. The urban core is marked by its historic civic and religious geography, including the Ancient Burying Ground and Old North Cem. These burial sites, alongside numerous others like Mount Saint Benedict Cem and Latimer Hill Cem, provide a dense record of the region's long-established communities and families.

Institutional growth is evident across the landscape, with campuses for the Univ of Hartford, Univ of Saint Joseph, and Capital Community College. Notable infrastructure connects the city to its neighbors, including the Bulkeley Bridge and Charter Oak Bridge. To the west and north, the terrain shifts toward Metacomet Ridge and the suburban reaches of Bloomfield and Windsor, where the Farmington River flows toward its confluence. This contemporary map documents the enduring spatial relationship between the city’s early colonial footprint and its modern academic and transportation hubs.
