1951 Map of Nantucket

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Nantucket Island is captured here during the mid-century, showcasing a landscape defined by its coastal wetlands and burgeoning town center. The detailed street grid of Nantucket town reveals established civic markers like the Cyrus Peirce Sch and a cluster of resting places including Old North Cem and Prospect Hill Cem. To the west, the topography shifts to a network of elongated ponds such as Long Pond and Hummock Pond, separating the main settlement from the remote outpost at Maddaket.
