About this map

The Merrimac River anchors this industrial and residential landscape during the late First World War era, winding through the dense urban core of Lawrence and Methuen. To the south and east, the character of the land shifts toward a network of village centers and specialized institutions, such as the State Almshouse in Tewksbury and the Andover Theolog. Sem. further east. The map reveals an intricate spiderweb of transportation, where the Main Line of Boston and Maine Railroad and various branches like the Lowell Br. of Boston & Maine R.R. link mill towns to outlying settlements.
