About this map

Industrial and institutional centers define the landscape of the Assabet River valley during the mid-1960s. The town of Maynard is shown in detail, anchored by the High Sch and St Bridgets Ch, while to the east, the Concord Reformatory sits near the banks of the Concord River and the Boston and Maine Railroad. The region's transport network is highly developed, featuring the intersection of major routes like Mass 2 and the Hartford and New Haven RR.

Significant military and conservation land occupies the southern half of the map, including the U S Military Reservation Natick Laboratories and a designated State Fish and Game Area. Numerous water bodies such as Willis Pond and White Pond are surrounded by residential growth and several local institutions, including the Acton-Boxborough Regional High Sch and Emerson Hospital, reflecting the suburban expansion of the era.
