1893 Map of Stonington

USGS Topo · Published 1903

About this map

The coastal transition of the late nineteenth century is visible across the borderlands of Connecticut and Rhode Island, where the New York Providence and Boston Railroad connects industrial centers like Westerly and Stonington. The map reveals a landscape defined by its maritime economy and rugged inland terrain, from the Silex Mine near Lantern Hill Pond to the busy waters of Mystic Harbor. Along the shoreline, safety infrastructure including a Life Saving Station and multiple Light House markers at Watch Hill Pt. and Stonington Harbor reflect the period's heavy coastal traffic.
