2021 Map of Tariffville

About this map

Metacomet Ridge dominates the landscape of this Hartford County corridor, where the Farmington River carves through the basalt highlands at Tariffville. The settlement pattern follows a series of historic village centers, from Simsbury Center and Hoskins in the south to Granby and Salmon Brook further north. This modern survey illustrates how early infrastructure has been repurposed for recreation, most notably where the Farmington Canal Trl and Farmington Valley Greenway Trl trace the path of 19th-century transport routes. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds, including the Baptist Cem and Saint Andrews Cem, while the rugged heights of Manitook Mtn and Talcott Mtn flank the developed valley floors. The presence of the Simsbury Airport near Lake Basile highlights the area's continued role as a regional hub.
