1978 Map of Bangor

About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this late 1970s survey, dividing the bustling urban centers of Bangor and Brewer. The city of Bangor is shown in high detail, from the massive footprint of the Bangor International Airport to the concentrated medical and educational district featuring Eastern Maine Medical Center and Husson College. A network of smaller settlements including West Bangor, East Bangor, and North Bangor surrounds the city core, while the Maine Central Railroad converges at Northern Maine Junction, illustrating the area's role as a major regional transit hub.
