2015 Map of Blue Hills

About this map

Adams National Historical Park stands as a focal point in this 2015 study of the southern suburban perimeter of Boston. The landscape is defined by the significant rise of the Blue Hill Range, featuring numerous summits like Great Blue Hill and Chickatawbut Hill that divide the residential development of Quincy, Milton, and Randolph. The map reveals a complex network of suburban expansion, with densely settled areas like South Quincy and South Braintree transitioning into the protected woodlands of the hills. Large water bodies such as the Great Pond Upper Reservoir and Ponkapoag Pond emphasize the region's historic reliance on local watersheds. Local genealogists will find several burial grounds noted, including Blue Hill Cem and Saint Marys Cem, alongside landmarks such as Curry Coll and various neighborhoods like North Stoughton and Braintree Highlands.
