1975 Map of Howland

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The confluence of the Piscataquis River and the Penobscot River serves as the focal point for this orthophotoquad, which captures the riverfront settlements of Howland and West Enfield during the mid-1970s. This aerial perspective reveals the sharp contrast between the established river towns and the expansive, drainage-heavy forest land to the west. The landscape is intricately carved by several watercourses including Meadow Brook, Pollard Brook, and Hoyt Brook, which reveal the wet, low-lying nature of the Penobscot County interior. The photographic imagery provides a clear view of the transportation corridors and industrial footprints along the riverbanks, illustrating the region's historical reliance on these major waterways for commerce and community development.
