About this map

Manchester and its surrounding suburbs appear as a dense network of residential and industrial corridors in this 2018 survey. The landscape is defined by the Hockanum River and its numerous tributaries, including Bigelow Brook and Folly Brook, which historically powered the region's development. Local history is deeply embedded in the map's details, from the concentrated clusters of settlements like Buckland, Hilliardville, and Manchester Green to the various community landmarks such as Manchester Community College.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, ranging from the East-Windsor Hill Cem in the north to the Beth Sholom Memorial Park and East Cem in the urban core. The transition between the suburban sprawl of South Windsor and the industrial heritage of Burnside and Burnham is clearly delineated. Notable water features like Union Pond and Lydall Pond Number 1 highlight the managed water resources that remain central to the area's geography.
