2012 Map of New Bedford North

About this map

The Acushnet River serves as the central artery for this coastal Massachusetts landscape, separating the bustling waterfront of Fairhaven and Oxford from the dense residential and industrial core of New Bedford Harbor. This 2012 edition documents a region deeply connected to its maritime and aviation infrastructure, featuring the Massachusetts State Pier, the Acushnet River Seaplance Base, and the New Bedford Regional Airport. To the north, the terrain transitions into a mosaic of planned residential developments like Sherwood Forest and Inland Park, interspersed with numerous historic burial grounds such as Saint Marys Cem and the Long Plain Cemeteries. This proximity of modern transit hubs to venerable local sites provides a clear view of how 21st-century growth has integrated with the established settlements of Plainville and North Fairhaven.
