About this map

The coastal landscapes of Falmouth and Mashpee are defined by an intricate network of kettle ponds and tidal inlets as they appeared in the mid-1940s. A dense collection of settlements like Teaticket, East Falmouth, and Waquoit Village reflects a post-war Cape Cod transitioning into a more permanent residential and seasonal community. The map reveals the early layout of coastal developments such as Falmouth Heights, Mara Vista, and Acapesket, alongside significant water bodies including Coonamessett Pond and Great Pond.
