A 1902 map links New Haven with West Haven, Savin Rock, Woodmont and neighboring communities.
Evidence, credit & reuse: Public domain in the United States according to Commons PD-US-expired; base map visibly bears a 1902 copyright imprint. The source states that later shading identifies the section now owned by the Shore Line Trolley Museum. Do not label that shading as an original 1902 feature. Only 600 pixels wide: useful as a local overview, not detailed zoom. Resized and WebP compressed only; no historical content added, retouched or removed.
