About this map

Fort Williams and the strategic heights of Portland Head overlook the entrance to Casco Bay in this mid-century coastal survey. The map details a period when maritime and military infrastructure defined the shoreline, featuring a Lighthouse, multiple Radio Towers, and a Weather Bureau Tower CG Station. These coastal defenses and navigational aids stand alongside residential developments like Delano Park and the small settlement at Pond Cove.
