About this map

The Chicopee River serves as the industrial and logistical spine of this 1940s landscape, flanked by the Boston and Albany Railroad and the historic Boston Post Road. Dense settlement patterns are concentrated in Ludlow and Indian Orchard, while the surrounding terrain rises into the Facing Hills and Minechoag Mtn, the latter topped with a fire tower. The map reveals a transition between the manufacturing centers of the river valley and the institutional and rural character of Wilbraham, where the Wilbraham Academy and School No 6 are prominent landmarks.
