1970 Map of Concord

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Sleepy Hollow Cemetery and the literary landmarks of Authors Ridge anchor this survey of a landscape deeply shaped by American history and literature. The map documents the convergence of the Concord River, Assabet River, and Sudbury River at the Egg Rock junction. At the heart of the region, the Minute Man Mon stands near the historic crossing of the river, while Revolutionary Ridge and Meriam Corner mark the path of colonial conflict. The mid-century expansion of Hanscom Field and the surrounding road network, including the cloverleaf interchanges near Hastings, contrasts with the preserved waters of Walden Pond State Res and the marshlands of the Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. Traces of the older agrarian and social fabric remain visible through features like the Old Burying Ground in Lincoln and numerous local schools such as the Emerson Sch and Alcott Sch.
