1964 Map of Hartford South

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the eastern boundary of this mid-century landscape, framing a dense network of suburban development and civic infrastructure south of Hartford. The terrain is defined by the prominent ridge of Cedar Mountain, which overlooks a transition from the industrial and aviation activity at Hartford-Brainard Airport to the institutional complexes of Rocky Hill. The map documents a significant concentration of public service sites, including the State Veterans Home and Hospital and the State Institute for Blind, alongside extensive green spaces like Goodwin Park and the expansive Cedar Hill Cemetery.
