1943 Map of Concord

About this map

Concord River and the Assabet River converge at the heart of this Middlesex County landscape, where the town of Concord serves as a hub for both the local rail network and the surrounding hills. In the mid-1940s, the terrain south of the town center is dominated by the Walden Pond State Reservation, while the growing footprint of the Bedford Airport reflects the expanding infrastructure of the era. The mapping of the Cambridge Reservoir and the Pumping Sta nearby underscores the regional importance of water management for the neighboring metropolitan areas. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated in the many named hills and burial sites, including the Old Burying Ground in Lincoln and the Lincoln Cem. Educational institutions like Middlesex Sch and Weston College appear as prominent landmarks amidst a complex web of brooks and turnpikes.
