About this map

The industrial and transportation hub of Lowell serves as the focal point for this mid-1930s survey, where the Merrimack River powers a dense urban landscape connected by a complex web of iron. The map documents the region's transition from the river-driven mills of Middlesex Village to the agricultural and residential outskirts of Chelmsford and Billerica. A dense network of rail lines, including the Boston and Maine R.R. Lowell Br. and the Stony Brook Railroad, illustrates how vital these corridors were to the movement of goods and people across the New Hampshire Massachusetts state line.
