The dense urban shoreline of New Bedford and the winding salt marshes of Dartmouth meet along the western edge of Buzzards Bay in the early 1960s. This survey illustrates a coastal landscape defined by maritime infrastructure and long-standing family settlements, ranging from the industrial corridors near Clark Cove to the rural expanses of Mishaum Neck. Significant institutional footprints are evident at the Fort Rodman Military Reservation and the Round Hill (US Reservation), while the interior is dotted with local landmarks like Cranberry Bog and St Johns Cem.
