The New Haven Region. .," ' Either side of New Haven bay, --an indentation of the coast.aibbiit four miles in depth, --there is a north-and-south range of hills', th'e trap and sandstone ridges of East Haven and North Haven on the eft's,"' and the eastern portion of the Woodbridge plateau on the west; and-."'these make the eastern and western boundaries of the New Haven region. Their height, which is greatest to the north, probably nowhere exceeds 600 feet. The width of the region varies from about four miles on the south to seven on the north, and the whole length from the Sound to Mt. Carmel--its true northern topographical limit--is twelve miles. The northern half of the region is divided longitudinally by two lines of ridges: (1) the long West Rock trap ridge near the western side, four hundred feet and upward in height; and (2), nearly midway in the area east of West Rock, the short isolated East Rock (E) range of trap and sandstone, and the continuation of this range northward to Mt. Carmel in the low Quinnipiac sandstone ridge which divides the waters of Mill River and the Quinnipiae. The New Haven region hence consists in its northern half of three subordinate north-and-south regions; (1) a narrow valley west of West Rock, drained by West River; (2) a broad central plain (the Hamden plain), continuous with the New Haven plain, rising into hills to the northward, and drained along the east side by Mill river; and (3) a wide eastern portion occupied by the river-course and...

Download or read book New Haven s Sentinels written by Jelle Zeilinga de Boer and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: West Rock and East Rock are bold and beautiful features around New Haven, Connecticut. They resemble monumental gateways (or time-tried sentinels) and represent a moment in geologic time when the North American and African continents began to separate and volcanism affected much of Connecticut. The rocks attracted the attention of poets, painters, and naturalists when beliefs rose about the spiritual dimensions of nature in the early 19th century. More than two dozen artists, including Frederick Church, George Durrie, and John Weir, captured their magic and produced an assortment of classic American landscapes. In the same period, the science of geology evolved rapidly, triggered by the controversy between proponents and opponents of biblical explanations for the origin of rocks. Lavishly illustrated, featuring over sixty paintings and prints, this book is a perfect introduction to understanding the relationship of geology and art. It will delight those who appreciate landscape painting, and anyone who has seen the grandeur of East and West Rock.
