About this map

Industrial expansion and military preparation define this landscape along the Connecticut River during the mid-1940s. The map illustrates the massive footprint of Westover Field northeast of Chicopee, signaling the area's strategic importance during the war years. Dense urban development is visible in the canal-laced district of Holyoke and across the river in South Hadley Falls. The transportation network is anchored by the Boston and Maine RR and Boston and Albany RR, which served the various mills and factories powered by the Chicopee River.
