1949 Map of Machias

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Machias River and East Machias River converge toward the coast, shaping the commercial and academic character of this Downeast Maine region in the late 1940s. The town of Machias serves as a central hub, anchored by the Washington State Normal School and the Maine Central Railroad corridor. Along the riverbanks, smaller communities like Hoyttown and East Machias reflect the traditional settlement patterns of Washington County, while the Machias Valley Airport shows mid-century infrastructure growth.
