1955 Map of North Scituate

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The vast Scituate Reservoir dominates this Rhode Island landscape, its waters held by the Gainer Memorial Dam and traversed by the Ashland Causeway. The surrounding hills of Scituate and Johnston are marked by a transition from traditional rural crossroad settlements to mid-century development. Evidence of earlier community life is found at the Scituate Town House and institutional landmarks like the Waterman Industrial Sch and the Pippin Orchard Sch. While arterial routes like the Hartford Pike and Danielson Pike connect the region to the urban centers of Providence, the interior remains defined by numerous smaller water bodies including Moswansicut Pond and Waterman Reservoir. Notable local features range from the National Guard post near North Scituate to the recreation grounds at Camp Massasoit.
