2024 Map of New Britain

About this map

The Lower Farmington River and Salmon Brook Wild and Scenic River corridor defines the northwestern corner of this Connecticut landscape, where the Farmington River meets the Pequabuck River near Farmington Station. The area is marked by significant topographical variation, dominated by the north-south spine of the Metacomet Ridge, featuring prominent landmarks like Rattlesnake Mtn, Pinnacle Rock, and Bradley Mtn. These ridges separate the suburban expansion of New Britain and Plainville from the protected waters of Shuttle Meadow Reservoir and Plainville Reservoir.
