1960 Map of Westport

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Southport and Westport anchor the coastal landscape of Fairfield County on this mid-century survey, where the Saugatuck River and Sasco Creek meet the Long Island Sound. The map reveals a suburbanizing terrain defined by significant infrastructure and institutional development, including the sprawling grounds of Fairfield University and the path of the Merritt Parkway. Inland, the geography is dominated by a chain of engineered water bodies like the Saugatuck Reservoir and Hemlock Reservoir, which transformed the natural drainage of the Aspetuck River valley.
