2024 Map of Newburyport East

About this map

The Merrimack River meets the Atlantic Ocean in this coastal survey, where the historic maritime centers of Newburyport and Salisbury sit amidst a complex network of marshes and barrier islands. The landscape is defined by the expansive Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, which encompasses Plum Island and a labyrinth of tidal channels such as Plumbush Creek and Pine Island Creek. Significant genealogical data is preserved in numerous burial sites, including the First Settlers Burying Ground and Old Town Cem in Newbury Old Town. The transition from historic settlement to modern conservation is evident, as the old neighborhoods of Joppa and Upper Green stand alongside landmarks like the Plum Island Airport and the Border-To-Boston Trl.
