The Marthas Vineyard R. R. follows the eastern shoreline in this late nineteenth-century coastal study, connecting the growing hubs of Cottage City and Edgartown. This era represents a significant period of development for the island, where the established maritime identity of ports like Vineyard Haven meets the rise of seasonal retreats in Oak Bluffs and Highlands. The interior remains characterized by agricultural settlements such as West Tisbury and North Tisbury, set against a landscape of glacial topography like Indian Hill.
