1970 Map of Natick

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Natick and Wellesley stand as the central hubs in this suburbanizing landscape west of Boston during the 1970s. The map illustrates a region defined by established academic and military institutions, including the expansive Natick Laboratories (US Army) near Lake Cochituate and several prominent campuses such as Regis College, Brandeis University, and Babson College. The development pattern shows the heavy influence of post-war infrastructure, with the Massachusetts Turnpike and the Penn Central rail lines cutting through the terrain to connect these growing residential areas to the urban core.
