The Cheney Mill Complex and the surrounding industrial corridor of the Hockanum River anchor this 2012 survey of the Manchester area. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of suburban development and historical industrial pockets, including the settlements of Hilliardville, Buckland, and Manchester Green. The map highlights the area's rich institutional history through its numerous religious and memorial sites, such as Saint James Cem and Saint Bridgets Cem. Aviation history is present in the north with Bancroft Airport and the unique Ralphs Seaplane Base on the Scantic River. This modern survey reveals how the local geography has been shaped by its waterways, from the Union Pond to the high ground of Mount Nebo, illustrating the evolution from a manufacturing hub to a primary residential center of the Hartford region.
