1961 Map of Harwich

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Brewster and Harwich dominate this mid-century survey of the Lower Cape, illustrating a landscape defined by its glacial kettle ponds and emerging post-war infrastructure. The center of the map is anchored by the massive Long Pond, while to the northeast, Nickerson State Park surrounds numerous smaller water bodies like Cliff Pond and Higgins Pond. This era shows the Mid-Cape Highway cutting through the terrain, a major change to the traditional travel patterns once dictated by the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad line.
