2018 Map of New Milford

About this map

The Housatonic River and the expansive Candlewood Lake define the geography of this western Connecticut landscape. In the town of New Milford, the dense concentration of civil and religious sites includes the Center Cem and Saint Francis Cem, while the southern reaches near Lanesville are marked by the Quaker Cem and the Hill Burying Ground. This survey reveals the complex relationship between the region's prominent hills, such as Candlewood Mtn and Boardman Mtn, and its industrial history, noted by features like The Lime Kiln and the Haviland Millpond. Aviation interests appear at the Candlelight Farms Airport, while the intricate shoreline of the lake creates a series of named points and coves including Candlewood Point and Squantz Cove, illustrating the area's modern development as a recreation and residential hub.
