1952 Map of Newburyport West

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Merrimack River bisects this mid-century landscape, separating the industrial density of Amesbury from the rural hills of West Newbury. This 1952 revision captures a transition in transportation, showing the legacy of the Boston and Maine Railroad alongside developing road networks like Storey Ave. To the north, the Powwow River winds through the heart of Amesbury, past Lake Gardner and numerous local cemeteries including Mt Prospect Cem and Salisbury Plains Cem. The terrain is defined by drumlin-like peaks such as Indian Hill and Crane Neck Hill, which overlook the complex water systems of the Upper Artichoke Reservoir and Lower Artichoke Reservoir. In the southern reaches, the venerable Governor Dummer Academy stands near the Parker River in Byfield, illustrating the deep-rooted educational and civic history of the area.
