2021 Map of Hartford North

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery for this 2021 landscape, defining the corridor between Hartford and Windsor. Modern bridge infrastructure like the Bulkeley Bridge and Founders Bridge connects the urban center to the eastern shores, while the Riverfront Trail System outlines the western bank. The area is dense with historical sites of interest to genealogists, specifically several early burial grounds including the Ancient Burying Ground and Old North Cem. Educational and civic authority is concentrated near the river, shown through the locations of the Hartford Seminary, the University of Hartford, and the Connecticut Supreme Court. To the north and west, the terrain rises toward Metacomet Ridge and Cook Hill, while the lower elevations are marked by the confluence of several tributaries like the North Branch Park River and the Podunk River.
