About this map

The agricultural and institutional landscape of southeastern Massachusetts is documented here shortly before the mid-century, defined by the winding course of the Taunton River and its numerous tributaries. At the heart of the sheet lies the extensive State Farm and the Lakeville State Sanitorium, reflecting the region's historical role in hosting significant state institutions. The New York New Haven and Hartford RR provides a backbone for the local economy, connecting industrial centers like Middleboro and Bridgewater to the wider rail network through points like North Lakeville Station.
