About this map

The Neponset River winds through the heart of this post-war landscape, defining the industrial and residential corridors of Norwood, Dedham, and Walpole. The river’s path is closely mirrored by the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad, which serves a string of active village centers including Islington, Winslows, and Morrills. This transportation network supported a mix of manufacturing and agriculture, evident in the presence of the Norfolk County Agricultural Sch and specialized infrastructure like the Abandoned Sewage Disposal site.
