HABS pics in Southport

There are an extraordinary number of HABS pics available for "Southport CT" places, many located within this district. Some may be described explicitly in the NRHP document, others may be found to be within the district by comparison to Map showing approximate bounds of Southport Historic District (but not exclusion of Pequot Avenue commercial and industrial properties), which is a Google map something that Polaron created using UTM coordinates included in NRIS database (and presumably included in the NRHP document). Possibilities to check:

• 1. Southport Harbor, Mill River, Southport Harbor, Southport, Fairfield County, CT

A good amount of Southport Harbor is in the district, by view from Google map, so presumably this is.  DoneKudzuVine (talk) 21:16, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
