Brookfield: I-89 North

4 44.07°, -72.61°
About location

Among the places of Vermont, Brookfield stands out for its rural hills and the historic Floating Bridge across Sunset Lake. Interstate 89 runs through the town, placing a major north–south route within a landscape of woodland, small farms and scattered homesteads. The Third Branch of the White River drains much of Brookfield and joins the White River farther south. A floating crossing has connected the shores of Sunset Lake since 1820; the present bridge continues that local tradition. Brookfield lies in Orange County, where settlement remains dispersed across rolling uplands rather than concentrated in an urban centre.

Region Vermont

Vermont is best known in the United States for the Green Mountains, the north–south range that gives the state its defining wooded backbone. These coordinates lie in north-central Vermont, where rolling uplands and narrow valleys lead toward the Lamoille River. Mount Mansfield, rising to 4,393 feet (1,339 metres), is the state’s highest peak and stands farther west in the same mountain region. Lake Champlain forms much of Vermont’s western edge, while the Connecticut River traces its border with New Hampshire. Maple sugaring is a defining seasonal tradition, and Vermont is the nation’s leading maple-syrup producer. Explore nearby places to better understand how north-central Vermont relates to the Green Mountains, river valleys and Lake Champlain.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
