1967 Map of Mount Carmel

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Mount Carmel and the distinctive ridgelines of Sleeping Giant State Park anchor this detailed mid-century survey of New Haven County. The landscape is a study in post-war suburban growth and traditional New England infrastructure, where early transportation arteries like the Bethany Turnpike, Whitney Ave, and Dixwell Ave connect established settlements such as Cheshire and Hamden. The industrial and agricultural heritage of the region is evident through features like the Axle Shop Pond and the Agricultural Experiment Sta, while the importance of water management is highlighted by a chain of reservoirs including Lake Watrous, Lake Chamberlain, and the New Naugatuck Reservoir. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local landmarks, ranging from the Old Bethany Cem and Doolittle Cem to the Our Lady of LaSalette Seminary and various schools that served these growing communities.
