About this map

The elbow of Cape Cod is defined by its intricate network of freshwater ponds and protected harbors, as seen in this 1940 survey. The township of Chatham serves as the hub, surrounded by coastal outposts like North Chatham and West Chatham. This era shows a maritime landscape heavily reliant on coastal safety, with several essential installations including the Chatham Lighthouse, Stage Harbor Lighthouse, and multiple Coast Guard stations.
