1956 Map of Marblehead North

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Coastal Essex County centers on a rugged stretch of the North Shore during the mid-1950s, where traditional maritime heritage meets post-war suburban development. The shore is defined by a complex archipelago of islands and rocky points, from the granite reaches of Bakers Island and Great Misery Island to the strategic fortifications at Fort Pickering on Winter Island. In-land, the landscape transitions to the estate-dotted hills of Hamilton and Wenham, home to the Myopia Hunt Club and institutional campuses like Gordon College and the Carmelite Jr Seminary.
