USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Beacon Hill and the Boston Common stand at the heart of this urban landscape during a period of significant 20th-century density. The map details the complex shoreline where the Charles River Basin meets the Boston Inner Harbor, showcasing the massive industrial footprint of the Logan International Airport and the US Naval Res dry docks. Moving inland, the dense residential neighborhoods of South Boston, Roxbury, and Dorchester are interwoven with transit corridors like the Penn Central and Mbta lines.
