Willimantic River
The river winds through the centre of town, and the streets, rail line and mill buildings all line up along its banks, giving the poster a clear central curve.

About this Willimantic map poster
Willimantic is part of the town of Windham in eastern Connecticut, and it grew up along the Willimantic River, whose falls powered its nineteenth-century mills. From above, the river curves through the middle of the map, with the old downtown on one side, long mill buildings along the banks and residential streets climbing the slopes around them.
Its nickname, Thread City, comes from the American Thread Company, whose mills once made it a leading producer of cotton thread. The town is also known for the Frog Bridge, where large bronze frogs sit on giant thread spools, a nod to a colonial-era local legend. Eastern Connecticut State University occupies a hillside campus to the north-west of downtown.
A Willimantic map poster brings together river, industry and campus in one frame. The curve of the water, the bridges crossing it and the long footprints of the mill complexes make a strong, graphic composition.

Thread mill complex
The long, rectangular buildings of the former American Thread Company mills sit beside the river, their footprints still easy to pick out on the map.
Frog Bridge crossing
The bridge with its bronze frogs on thread spools links the two sides of the river and has become one of the town's most recognisable landmarks.
