About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this 1942 coastal survey, defining the industrial and social boundaries between Waldo, Penobscot, and Hancock counties. Near the narrows of the river stands the formidable Fort Knox, positioned across from the village of Bucksport. This era shows a landscape where maritime transport and rail infrastructure intersect, with the Bangor and Aroostook RR tracing the eastern bank through Orrington and South Orrington. The river's edge is dotted with coves and points like Collins Cove and Oak Pt, while the interior terrain is marked by granite peaks such as Mt Waldo and Heagan Mt.
