1953 Map of Southbury

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Housatonic River forms a wide, dramatic bend through this mid-century landscape, widening into Lake Zoar near the settlement of Stevenson. Along its eastern banks, the preserved lands of Kettletown State Park and Pugwegut State Forest showcase the area's transition from agricultural use to recreational conservation. This era of mapping documents the established communities of Southbury and Southford, where the landscape is peppered with family-named landmarks like Walnut Hill and Bowers Hill.
