Synopsis
This book is a collection of observations, reports, and recommendations concerning the development of waterways and harbors within the state of Connecticut circa 1909. The authors, a commission appointed for the purpose of "investigating and reporting concerning the improvement of rivers and harbors", present their findings following a thorough analysis of the conditions of the state's waterways, with particular attention paid to the Housatonic, Thames, and Connecticut Rivers, as well as New London, New Haven, and Bridgeport Harbors. The study explores the economic and industrial impact of these waterways, recognizing their foundational role in Connecticut's commercial success, and highlights the need for state investment to enhance and preserve this advantage in the face of growing regional and national competition for trade. Also included is a comparative study of European waterways and port facilities, offering insights into best practices that could usefully be applied to Connecticut's own infrastructure.
