1958 Map of Blue Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Great Blue Hill and the sprawling Blue Hills Reservation dominate this landscape just south of Boston, where the late 1950s suburban expansion meets the granite peaks of Norfolk County. The terrain is marked by numerous summits like Chickatawbut Hill and Hancock Hill, while the industrial legacy of the region is visible in the numerous quarries scattered near West Quincy. The map documents a significant era of institutional and educational growth, featuring prominent campuses such as Curry College, Milton Academy, and the Boston School for the Deaf.
