1952 Map of Hartford North

About this map

Mt St Benedict Cemetery and the sprawling campus of the St Thomas Seminary sit at the transition between the dense urban grid of northern West Hartford and the more open terrain of Bloomfield. This 1952 revision captures the region's mid-century institutional and educational landscape, featuring prominent landmarks like the Loomis Institute, Trinity College, and the State Institute For Blind. The Connecticut River serves as the central artery, crossed by the Bulkeley Bridge and the Charter Oak Bridge, linking the capital city to industrial hubs like East Hartford.
