2018 Map of Woodmont

About this map

New Haven Harbor and the New Haven Harbor Entrance Channel dominate this coastal survey, where the urban reaches of New Haven and West Haven meet the Long Island Sound. The shoreline is characterized by a dense sequence of residential developments and recreational waterfronts, including West Shore, Woodmont, and Momauguin. This modern era map reveals a highly structured maritime landscape, with the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through the southern waters and numerous navigational hazards like Quixes Ledge and Old Head Reef marking the approach to the harbor. Landside, the terrain is defined by named rises such as Jones Hill and public landmarks like Lighthouse Point, while the Oyster River provides a natural boundary between municipalities. The map documents the extensive road network of the late 2010s, from Benham Hill Rd to Seaview Ave, reflecting the high-density suburban character of the South Central Connecticut Planning Region.
