1944 Map of Narragansett Pier

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Narragansett Pier and the surrounding coastline of Washington County appear here during the mobilization of the early 1940s. The map highlights the strategic military presence along the Narragansett Bay West Passage, anchored by Fort Philip Kearney to the north and the sprawling Fort Nathaniel Greene near the tip of Point Judith. Between these defenses, the landscape transitions from the developed streets of Wakefield and Peace Dale to the coastal summer colonies of Bonnet Shores and Scarborough State Beach.
