Description

View of Holyoke, Hampden County, M.A., 1881 / drawn & published by A. F. Poole.

This bird’s-eye view print of Holyoke, Massachusetts was drawn and published by A. F. Poole, Beck & Pauli, Lith. in 1881. Holyoke was settled in the mid-1700's along the Connecticut River.

Originally a farming community, Holyoke began constructing an elaborate canal system in the mid-1800's. The system attracted a number of paper mills to build factories along the canals. The paper mills dominated Holyoke’s economy by 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’s water and were used to provide power from the dam to the nearby mills. Holyoke grew around its many paper mills and prospered greatly because of them.
