About this map

Massachusetts Bay and its intricate shoreline dominate this coastal study, revealing the dense recreational and residential corridor of Nantasket Beach during the early 1960s. The map details a landscape of prominent drumlins including Sagamore Hill, Hampton Hill, and Atlantic Hill, which overlook the crowded waterfront of Paragon Park. Inland from the beaches, the residential clusters of Kenberma and North Cohasset are defined by a network of local roads like Atlantic Ave and Jerusalem Rd near the protected waters of Straits Pond.
