2014 Map of Biddeford

About this map

Factory Island and Springs Island anchor the industrial and civic heart of Biddeford where the Saco River meets the sea. This coastal landscape is defined by a series of distinct crossroads and residential clusters, ranging from Five Points and Newtown inland to the seaside communities of Fortunes Rocks, Hills Beach, and Camp Ellis. The map illustrates a complex relationship between land and water, featuring several aviation facilities like the Biddeford Municipal Airport and Goosefair Airport alongside traditional maritime landmarks such as Ferry Beach and Goose Rocks Beach. Genealogists will find a wealth of data in the numerous burial grounds, including Laurel Hill Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Woodlawn Cem. The southern extent of the sheet reaches toward Cape Porpoise, capturing the winding course of the Batson River and the Batson River Reservoir.
