1918 Map of Dover

About this map

The Cocheco River and Salmon Falls River converge into the Piscataqua River, defining a landscape of tidal bays and early industrial power during the First World War. Dover stands as the primary hub, surrounded by a dense network of rail lines including the Boston and Maine RR and the Portsmouth and Dover RR. Local landmarks such as the County Farm and the Granite State Park reflect the public institutions and recreational spaces of the era.
