1952 Map of Moodus

About this map

The Salmon River and its winding tributaries define the landscape of this mid-century Connecticut survey, where the river serves as a natural boundary for Colchester, Marlborough, and East Haddam. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the path of the New York New Haven And Hartford railroad, which includes the Westchester Sta stop. Industrial and community hubs like Moodus and East Hampton are well-established, surrounded by numerous water bodies that drove local mill economies, such as the Moodus Reservoir and Pocotopaug Lake.
