1957 Map of Cape Elizabeth

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Coastal Cumberland County topography is defined by the sharp transition from the residential fringes of South Portland to the rocky promontories and hidden coves of Cape Elizabeth. The map highlights a landscape in post-war transition, where established residential areas like Delano Park and Elizabeth Park sit near working shorelines and navigational landmarks. Notable maritime infrastructure includes the Portland Head Lighthouse and the strategic U S Mil Res Fort Williams at the northern tip, while the interior reveals the importance of the Great Pond drainage and the meandering Spurwink River.
