The Kennebec River corridor defines the geography of the state capital and its neighboring towns in this 2011 survey. The landscape is characterized by a dense concentration of civic and commemorative sites, including the Maine Veterans Memorial Cemetery, the University of Maine at Augusta, and the historic grounds of Camp Keyes. Topographical features such as Granite Hill and Howard Hill overlook the river valley, where water management is marked by the Vaughn Brook Dam and Hallowell Recreation Pond Dam. In the western portion of the quadrangle, the village of Manchester sits near the Augusta Golf Course, while the river itself features navigational landmarks like Britts Shoal and the Augusta Seaplane Base. This detailed record captures the modern footprint of Augusta and Hallowell, preserving the locations of numerous family and municipal burial grounds from Coombs Cemetery to Riverside Cemetery.
