1987 Map of Stockbridge

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Housatonic River winds through the heart of the Berkshire Hills in the late 1980s, anchoring a landscape where cultural institutions and industrial history sit side-by-side. The world-renowned Tanglewood Auditorium occupies the northern shores of Stockbridge Bowl, while Stockbridge and Lenox maintain their character as established New England centers. To the west, the legacy of the region's iron industry is visible in labels like Hudson Ore Bed Pond and Leet Ore Bed Pond, along with the settlement of Richmond Furnace. These landmarks reflect an era when the extractive economy of the 19th century had transitioned into a premier cultural and residential destination. The Conrail line and the Massachusetts Turnpike provide modern connectivity across the Columbia Co and Berkshire Co line, linking the valley floor to the surrounding heights of Stockbridge Mountain and Lenox Mountain.
