1938 Map of Mt Tom

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Mt Tom State Reservation and the Mt Tom Range anchor this topographic study, where the steep ridgeline separates the industrial corridor of the Connecticut River from the interior upland basins. In the late 1930s and 1940s, the landscape around Holyoke and Westfield shows a complex mix of early aviation infrastructure, like Barnes Municipal Airport and multiple Airway Beacons, alongside long-established social institutions such as the Orphans Home and St Jerome Cem. The water management network is particularly dense here, featuring the Ashley Pond and Pequot Pond reservoirs, and specialized facilities like the Paderewski Pumping Sta. Transportation is defined by the New York New Haven and Hartford RR and the Boston and Albany RR, which served the industrial heart of the Pioneer Valley.
