About this map

Westfield and West Springfield define the northern half of this late-1930s landscape, where industrial infrastructure meets rural expansion across the Westfield River. The map illustrates a transitional period of public works and social institutions, marked by the extensive aqueduct system and the presence of the Westfield State Sanatorium near the base of West Mountain. In the south, the village of Agawam and its surrounding hamlets like Feeding Hills and North Agawam show a dense network of local roads such as Hartford Street and New Haven Street. The central vertical ridge of Proven Mountain creates a natural divide, shielding the smaller settlements of Hosmer Corner and Johnson Corner from the more developed river valley. Genealogists will find value in the specific placement of the Hampden County Training Sch and historic landmarks like the Monastery and St James Ch.
