1945 Map of Marblehead South

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Marblehead and its coastal surroundings are shown here just after the war, illustrating the dense residential core of the peninsula and its relationship to the Atlantic Ocean. The survey highlights the narrow Causeway connecting the mainland to the Neck, providing a clear view of the harbor's protective geography. Maritime landmarks such as Skinner Head, Boden Pt, and the rocky outcroppings of Great Pig Rocks and Tinkers I underscore the nautical character of the North Shore. Transportation is anchored by the Boston and Maine railroad line, which reaches into the Devereux area. The map also meticulously records the boundaries extending into the tidewater, marking divisions between coastal communities from Salem down to the Boston line.
