1893 Map of Chatham

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

Chatham and its neighboring villages of North Chatham and Chatham Port dominate this coastal survey of the lower Cape. The landscape is defined by the shifting sands of Nauset Beach and the elongated stretch of Monomoy Island, which shields Chatham Harbor from the open Atlantic Ocean. The intricacies of the shoreline are evident in the numerous protected coves and ponds, including Ryders Cove, Oyster Pond, and Bassing Harbor, reflecting a maritime economy dependent on these sheltered waters.
