About this map

New Bedford Harbor and the Acushnet River serve as the industrial and maritime spine of this coastal landscape, reflecting the region's deep connection to the sea during the 1940s. The dense urban grid of New Bedford transitions into the surrounding townships of Fairhaven, Acushnet, and Dartmouth. Inland, the terrain is characterized by expansive wetlands like the Acushnet Cedar Swamp and the Bolton Cedar Swamp, punctuated by local landmarks such as the Mendall Hill Fire Tower and Sassaquin Hospital.
