USGS Topo · Published 1938About this map
The Niantic River and its expansive bay define this 1930s coastal landscape, where the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad cuts a vital path across the marshy shoreline. This era shows a transition from traditional rural hamlets like Flanders and East Lyme toward a seasonal coastal economy, evidenced by the proliferation of waterfront communities such as Crescent Beach, Attawan Beach, and the Black Point Beach Club.
