Description
This aerial panoramic photograph of Hartford was taken by James Blakeway. It features Hartford as seen looking across the Connecticut River. The tallest building in the center of the photograph is City Place One. The next tallest structure to its left is Travelers Tower, which was completed in 1919 and was New England's tallest building for many years. The gold-domed Connecticut State Capitol is visible left of Travelers Tower. The bridge to the far right is Bulkeley Bridge, which was built in 1908. Mark Twain, the prolific American author, resided in Hartford from 1871 to 1891. During this very creative time, he wrote classics such as Life on The Mississippi and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
