1950 Map of Gorham

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Industrial and educational growth in the mid-20th century centers on the hub of Gorham, where the State Normal Sch stands at the heart of the village. The landscape is defined by the powerful flow of the Presumpscot River, which drops over Gambo Falls and Mallison Falls, powering the adjacent settlements of South Windham and Little Falls. This era shows a community in transition, balancing its agricultural roots—represented by the Windham Town Farm and Westbrook City Farm—with the vital transit networks of the Maine Central Railroad and the Boston and Maine Railroad.
