1968 Map of Waterbury

About this map

The Naugatuck River corridor serves as the industrial and geographical spine of this region, anchored by the dense urban center of Waterbury. By the mid-1960s and early 1980s, the landscape shows significant suburban expansion into the hills, with purple-tinted revisions marking the growth of neighborhoods like Town Plot Hill and Bunker Hill. The transition from a manufacturing-heavy river valley to a modern transit hub is evident in the complex interchanges connecting Chase Parkway and other arterial routes.
