2024 Map of Gloucester OE N

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Gloucester and the coastal settlements of Annisquam, Lanesville, and Pigeon Cove anchor this modern topographic view of Cape Ann. The landscape is defined by the industrial legacy of stone excavation, evidenced by Gannerys Quarry and Bay State Quarry near the coastline. Genealogy researchers can find numerous burial grounds, including Locust Grove Cem, Seaside Cem, and Mount Adnah Cem, which speak to the long-established maritime communities along Ipswich Bay. The intricate shoreline is a mosaic of points and coves like Halibut Point and Plum Cove, while the tidal geography of the Annisquam River creates a complex network of marshes including the Walker Creek Marshes and Farm Creek Marshes. Modern transit corridors such as Washington ST and Main ST connect these historic harbors, while Dogtown Commons and Railcut Hill provide a glimpse into the interior upland terrain that has remained largely undeveloped compared to the densely settled waterfronts of Riverdale and Rockport.
