1947 Map of Southwick

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The New York New Haven and Hartford railroad cuts a distinct vertical path through the eastern corridor of this 1940s landscape, connecting the water-rich basin of the Congamond Lakes to the industrial outskirts of Westfield. This survey captures the transition from the rugged western uplands of Sodom Mountain and Badluck Mtn down toward the managed agricultural and recreation lands of Southwick. Local institutions like the West Parish Church and Southwick Ch serve as social anchors for settlements such as Mundale and Gillett Corner. Water management is a primary theme of the terrain, visible in the extensive Aqueduct system and the Westfield Reservoir, which utilize the natural drainages of Munn Brook and the Westfield River to support the region's growth.
