1956 Map of Dover
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Piscataqua River and its numerous tidal branches form the geographic heart of this mid-century New Hampshire and Maine coastal region. Centered on the industrial and residential hub of Dover, the map reveals a landscape undergoing significant post-war change, most notably the sprawling presence of the Pease Air Force Base and its adjacent U S Military Reservation near Newington. This military expansion is mirrored by suburban developments like Pannaway Manor and Wentworth Acres, which contrast with the older, established centers of Durham, Newmarket, and South Berwick.
