• DESCRIPTION: Greenwich, Cos Cob, Rocky Neck Point, Mianus, Glenville, and Banksville, 1867. This detailed map from F. W. Beers’ Atlas of New York and Vicinity beautifully captures these six Connecticut villages in the mid-19th century. It highlights early roads, homes, and even the names of property owners, offering a rare glimpse into the past. At the time, these communities were a mix of maritime hubs, mill villages, and quiet countryside, slowly evolving with the expansion of railroads and industry. Beers’ work not only documented the changing landscape but also preserved a record of daily life before modern development reshaped the region.
