About this map

The Hanging Hills and Lamentation Mtn dominate this mid-century portrait of Central Connecticut, where the industrial city of Meriden sits in a valley of volcanic trap rock ridges. The landscape is a complex mix of urban density and institutional grounds, including the State School for Boys and the Undercliff Sanatorium. Transport and water infrastructure are highly developed, with the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad following the path of the Quinnipiac River through South Meriden.
