About this map

The Loring Air Force Base dominates the eastern landscape of this northern Aroostook County map, its complex infrastructure and housing blocks appearing at a time of significant Cold War expansion. To the west, the rural character of the Maine borderlands remains evident in the winding course of the Little Madawaska River and the small-scale agricultural layout of the Connor and Caswell townships. These communities are anchored by local landmarks such as the Lister Community Ch and Kelly Sch, which served as local social hubs before the full impact of base development transformed the region's economy.
