About this map

The Acushnet River serves as a central artery for this coastal region, dividing the industrial landscape of New Bedford from the residential and maritime reaches of Fairhaven. By the late 1940s, the urban core was densely packed with civic institutions, including the Whaling Museum and Vocational School, while the waterfront featured specialized sites like the State Pier and the defensive grounds of Fort Phoenix.
