1963 Map of New Bedford South

About this map

The coastal stretch of South Dartmouth and New Bedford reveals a landscape defined by maritime defense and mid-century residential expansion during the early 1960s. The southern tip of the New Bedford peninsula is dominated by the Fort Rodman Military Reservation, while further south along the coast, the Round Hill (US Reservation) occupies a prominent position on the neck. These federal holdings sit alongside established local institutions like the sprawling Rural Cemetery and numerous parish schools such as St Hedwig Sch and St Annes Sch.
