About this map

New Bedford and the surrounding coastal communities of Fairhaven and Acushnet are captured here in the late 1970s, showcasing a landscape defined by its deep-water harbor and extensive wetlands. The city's industrial and transportation infrastructure is prominent, from the New Bedford Municipal Airport and Bedford Industrial Park to the numerous wharves and the State Pier along the Acushnet River. The map details a transition from dense urban grids to the sprawling Acushnet Cedar Swamp State Reservation and numerous cranberry bogs to the north.
