1938 Map of Mt Tom

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Mt Tom Range and Holyoke Mountain dominate this landscape, creating a dramatic physical divide between the developing valley floors of the late 1930s. To the east, the Connecticut River serves as a primary industrial corridor, lined with infrastructure such as the Jones Ferry Pumping Sta and the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad line. This era captures the transition between early rural settlements and modern regional infrastructure, evidenced by the expansive City of Westfield Barnes Municipal Airport and the West Springfield Airport situated in the southern lowlands. Local history is preserved in named corners and institutions, from Swanson Corners to the Monastery near Amostown. The terrain is pockets of recreation and utility, with the Mt Tom Golf Course and Mountain Park nestled near the reservoir system that includes Ashley Pond and Pequot Pond.
