1951 Map of Westport

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The coastal and suburban development of Fairfield County is captured in detail shortly after mid-century, showing the transition from inland farming hamlets to burgeoning shoreline communities. The Boston Post Road and the Merritt Parkway cut across the landscape, framing the growth of Westport and Fairfield as they expand around established institutions like Fairfield University and Ludlowe High Sch. To the north, the terrain remains defined by its water supply infrastructure, dominated by the Hemlock Reservoir, Aspetuck Reservoir, and Saugatuck Reservoir.
