This map of New Canaan, Connecticut was created by KNOWOL in the tradition of nineteenth century panoramic lithographs. The map records the town in loving detail, and accurately depicts its roads, geography, and local and historical landmarks. Every building has been drawn individually, so you can zoom in and find your house or place of work. Each landmark on the map was researched and verified against the National Register of Historic Places, state records, and the institutions’ own histories.
