1955 Map of Kent

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Housatonic River carves a deep path through the Litchfield County hills, anchoring a landscape where 1950s agriculture and early industrial remnants met a growing recreation economy. Along the western bank, the Appalachian Trail traverses Schaghticoke Mountain and Mt Algo, overlooking the town of Kent and the historic site of Kent Furnace. The influence of the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad is evident at Gaylordsville Sta, which served as a vital link for the valley's small settlements.
