About this map

Manchester dominates this landscape where the Merrimack River meets a complex network of industrial-era infrastructure and residential expansion. The city's growth is anchored by institutions like the New Hampshire Institute of Art and Univ of New Hampshire-at-Manchester, while the B & M RR corridor remains a prominent feature of the urban core. Further south, the map reveals the transition into the residential and industrial areas of Goffs Falls and the sprawl surrounding Manchester Airport.

Genealogists and local historians can find a high density of burial grounds including Valley Cem, the riverside Pine Grove Cem, and New Saint Josephs Cem. To the east, the natural geography of Massabesic Lake provides a stark contrast to the city, featuring named points such as Deer Neck and Rocky Point. The map provides an detailed view of the infrastructure connecting these areas, notably the Granite Street Bridge and Queen City Bridge over the Merrimack.
