1958 Map of Concord

About this map

Concord and its literary and revolutionary heritage are central to this mid-century survey, which records the landscape before the significant suburban expansion of the later twentieth century. The map highlights the town's famous landmarks, including Authors Ridge and the Old North Bridge Minute Man Mon, alongside the early footprint of the Minute Man Nat Historic Site. To the east, the transition from a traditional New England village to a strategic military hub is evident in the sprawling Hanscom Air Force Field.
