1994 Map of Martha's Vineyard

About this map

The maritime landscapes of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Island are shown here following revisions in the early 1990s. The map details the complex coastal geography from the Elizabeth Islands in Buzzards Bay to the eastern shores of Quidnet and Siasconset. This edition illustrates the expansive Manuel F Correllus State Forest at the heart of the Vineyard and the protected lands of the Nantucket Island National Wildlife Refuge and Nomans Land Island National Wildlife Refuge. The settlement patterns of the era are visible in established towns like Vineyard Haven, Oak Bluffs, and Edgartown, contrasted with the seasonal character of Madaket and Wauwinet. Significant transportation infrastructure, including the Martha's Vineyard Airport and the coastal State Road, supports the region's connection to the mainland via Vineyard Sound and Nantucket Sound.
