About this map

Massachusetts Bay defines the northern reaches of this coastal survey, where the rocky shoreline transitions into the developed resort areas and residential pockets of the 1930s. The dense clustering of structures at Nantasket and along Nantasket Beach highlights the area's role as a major coastal destination, while the inland topography of Sagamore Hill and Hampton Hill provides a backdrop to the tidal flow of the Weir River.
