1975 Map of Biddeford Pool

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Biddeford Pool stands as the primary focus of this coastal Maine orthophotograph, captured in the mid-1970s. The settlement's unique geography is clearly defined, situated on a peninsula that separates the sheltered waters of The Pool from the open Atlantic Ocean. This specialized aerial survey provides a photographic record of the shoreline and coastal development as it existed before the expansion of modern beachfront infrastructure. To the north, the expanse of Saco Bay meets the mainland, while the coastline curves southward toward Fortunes Rocks. Produced by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, this imagery offers a direct visual representation of the land-use patterns and natural topography of the York County coast during this era.
