USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
The Willimantic River and Shetucket River define the industrial and geographic core of this mid-1940s Connecticut landscape, converging near the bustling hub of Willimantic. This survey captures the region as a primary transit nexus, where the New York New Haven and Hartford rail lines intersect with the Central Vermont railroad. The map records a transition from the dense urban grid of the "Thread City" to the surrounding agricultural uplands and specialized installations like the Windham Airport and the State Rifle Range.
