About this map

The Connecticut River dominates this pre-war landscape, serving as the central axis for the industrial and residential growth of Springfield and its neighboring communities. This 1939 edition highlights a complex urban infrastructure defined by major rail lines like the Boston and Albany RR and the Boston and Maine RR, which converge at Union Sta. The industrial character of the era is anchored by the prominent U S Armory and the expansive Watershops Pond, while the cultural and social life of the city is represented by Springfield College and the Exposition Grounds across the river.
