1986 Map of Keene

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery for this tri-state region in the mid-1980s, where the borders of New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts converge. Industrial and residential hubs like Keene, Brattleboro, and Greenfield anchor the river valleys, while the surrounding uplands are dominated by protected woodlands and massive water management projects. Large-scale reservoirs such as the Somerset Reservoir, Harriman Reservoir, and a portion of the Quabbin Reservoir underscore the 20th-century transformation of the watershed for regional power and water supply.
