About this map

The Saugatuck River and Mill River basins define this coastal Fairfield County landscape in the early 1950s, a period marked by established suburban growth and the preservation of large watershed tracts. The expansive Hemlock Reservoir and Saugatuck Reservoir dominate the northern terrain, illustrating the region's role in supporting the water needs of a burgeoning population. Traditional settlements like Greenfield Hill and Lyons Plain remain distinct amidst the rolling hills, while the southern shoreline at Southport and Fairfield shows denser development concentrated along the Boston Post Road.
