About this map

The Naugatuck River corridor and its industrial valley define this landscape, where steep topography transitions into the established settlements of Thomaston and Plymouth. The map documents a significant water management network, featuring the Terryville Reservoir Number 2 and the Bristol Reservoir Number Three alongside Hancock Brook Lake. These reservoirs reflect the area's historical reliance on managed water for local industry and public utility.

Transportation and genealogy details are dense, from the Terryville Tunnel in the east to the Waterbury Airport in the south. Numerous burial grounds, including the West Side Cem, Hillside Cem, and the Saints Cyril and Methodius Orthodox Cem, provide essential data for local historians. This contemporary survey preserves the names of long-standing landmarks like Reynolds Bridge and the various hills that overlook the river valley, such as Hickory Hill and Lattin Hill.
