1951 Map of Greenville

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Greenville serves as the focal point of this 1951 survey, situated at the southern tip of Moosehead Lake. The landscape is a complex intersection of logging-era transportation and early recreational infrastructure, where the Canadian Pacific and Bangor and Ar00st00k railroads converge near Greenville June. The map details a transition from the industrial activity at Shirley Mills and the Quarry near Monson to the wilderness of the Piscataquis and Somerset County line. Significant terrain markers like Squaw Mountain and Little Squaw Mountain dominate the western horizon, while the Appalachian Trail winds through the eastern ridges of Elliottsville. Notable local landmarks include the State Fish Hatchery, a Lookout Tower, and several small settlements such as Blanchard and Upper Shirley Corner, providing a look at the mid-century social geography of the Maine North Woods.
