1964 Map of Hartford North

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery for this mid-century view of the state capital and its surrounding towns. The dense urban grid of Hartford is highly detailed, showing civic anchors like the State Capitol and State Library alongside educational institutions such as the University of Hartford and Trinity College. The map captures the city as its suburban footprint expanded into Bloomfield and West Hartford, while the Penn Central tracks and major crossings like the Bulkeley Bridge emphasize the importance of the river corridor for transit. To the north and east, the character of the land shifts toward more open spaces, featuring the Loomis Institute in Windsor and the expansive Mount St Benedict Cemetery, illustrating the evolving layout of the metropolitan area during the early 1970s.
