1964 Map of Southbury

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Lake Zoar and the Housatonic River anchor this mid-century landscape where Fairfield and New Haven counties meet. The era's infrastructure is clearly visible, from the Stevenson Dam and its associated Powerplant at the southern bend to the Waterbury-Oxford Airport in the northeast. The village of Southbury shows its development along Bullet Hill Road, while smaller settlements like South Britain and Quaker Farms retain their historic clusters. Local history is preserved in the numerous burial grounds, including Pine Hill Cem and Middleground Cem, while the industrial past of the Little River is evidenced by Papermill Pond. Conservation land is already established at Kettletown State Park and Southford Falls State Park, marking the balance between the region's suburban growth and its protected woodlands.
