2015 Map of Gloucester

About this map

Gloucester and its intricate harbor network dominate this 2015 maritime study. The famous Blynman Drawbridge serves as a critical junction point, connecting the inner city to the peninsula of Dolliver's Neck and the residential stretches along Hesperus Ave. Inland, a chain of freshwater bodies including Haskell Pond, Dykes Pond, and the paired Upper Banjo Pond and Lower Banjo Pond provide a contrast to the salt spray of Southeast Harbor. The terrain is characterized by coastal elevations like Heap of Rocks Hill and significant navigational hazards such as Saturday Night Ledge and Naushon Point Shoal. Local researchers can trace the dense street grid from Main St to Washington St, reflecting the city's enduring layout at the mid-2010s.
