1977 Map of Newburyport East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Newburyport stands as the urban anchor of this coastal orthophotoquad, situated where the broad Merrimack River meets the sea. This unique 1970s visual survey, produced by the Geological Survey in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, uses rectified photoimagery to reveal the intricate saltwater marshes and tidal inlets that dominate the landscape south of the city. The transition from the developed town centers to the shifting sands of Plum Island and the meandering course of the Parker River is captured with striking clarity, showing the precise density of settlement along the shoreline.
