Description

View of Holyoke, Hampden County, M.A., 1877 / drawn & published by H. H. Bailey & J. C. Hazen.

This colorful bird’s-eye view print of Holyoke, Massachusetts was drawn and published by H. H. Bailey & J. C. Hazen, C. H. Vogt, Lith. in 1877. Holyoke was settled in the mid-1700's along the Connecticut River.

Originally a farming community, Holyoke began the construction of its elaborate canal system in the mid-1800's and began hosting a number of paper mills. The paper mills dominated Holyoke’s economy in the late 1800's. The mills were powered by a dam built at that point along the river. The hand-dug canals were filled with the river water and were used to provide power from the dam to the nearby mills.

The Holyoke Water Power Company was organized in the 1860's after the original canal company failed. The firm gained control of the canals, the dam, and the locks, and was able to prosper greatly with stock investments.

The illustration includes labeled roads, buildings, bridges and railroad route.
