1977 Map of Holliston

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Holliston and its surrounding communities are captured in this 1977 orthophotograph, which provides a detailed look at the land-use patterns of eastern Massachusetts during the late seventies. The aerial imagery highlights the transition from traditional village centers to modern suburban development, visible in the residential grids expanding around Metcalf and Gooch Corners. To the south, the winding course of the Charles River flows past West Medway and Medway, marking the southern boundary of the quadrangle. Produced by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Public Works, this rectified imagery reveals the specific placement of individual structures, roads, and woodlots as they stood on April 1, 1977. Local historians can use the high-contrast photographic detail to pinpoint properties near Braggville or trace the early development of the region's transportation network.
