About this map

Sandy Neck creates a massive protective barrier for Barnstable Harbor, a landscape defined by the contrast between these saltwater marshes and the inland freshwater kettle ponds. At the start of the 1940s, the village of Hyannis serves as a bustling hub, showing a dense network of streets and landmarks including the Hyannis Airport and the Teachers College. Further north, the county seat at Barnstable sits along the New York New Haven and Hartford RR, which connects the north shore settlements from West Barnstable to Yarmouth Port.
