1961 Map of Cohasset

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Cohasset Harbor and the jagged Atlantic shoreline anchor this coastal study, where the maritime traditions of the South Shore meet the expanding suburban footprint of the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by its numerous marshes and swamplands, such as Great Swamp and Black Pond Swamp, which dictated the winding paths of roads like Chief Justice Cushing Highway. While the northern reaches show established settlements like North Scituate and Egypt, much of the interior remains dominated by large wooded tracts and the significant US Government Reservation.
