1938 Map of Houlton

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Meduxnekeag River and its south branch anchor this portrait of Aroostook County, where the international border with New Brunswick, Canada, defines the eastern edge of the landscape. As a vital northern hub, Houlton is shown with its dense street grid and significant infrastructure, including the Transoceanic Telephone Receiving Station and a large Fish Hatchery. The map captures a high density of rural schoolhouses and neighborhood markers such as Starkey Corners, Porter Settlement, and Jackins Settlement, which illustrate the dispersed agricultural settlement patterns of the 1930s.
