About this map

Bradley Field US Military Reservation dominates the central landscape of this mid-century survey, illustrating the significant military footprint in the Connecticut River Valley during the post-war era. To the west, the steep rise of West Suffield Mountain and Peak Mountain provides a sharp geological contrast to the developed lowlands. The area is a dense network of local education and faith, featuring numerous rural schoolhouses like the Boston Neck Sch and Griffin Sch, alongside established institutions such as Suffield Academy. The Farmington River winds through the southern portion, passing through Poquonock and Birchwood, while the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad facilitates industrial movement through Windsor Locks. Notable landmarks include the Old Newgate Prison on the western ridge and a Fish Hatchery near the Windsor Locks town center.
