1956 Map of Old Orchard Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Old Orchard Beach serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the leisure economy of the shoreline meets the established educational and residential centers of Saco and Biddeford. The map reveals a high concentration of institutions south of Goosefare Brook, including Thornton Academy, the Armory, and several local schools like Burns Sch and Sweetser Sch. Further inland, the landscape transitions from the dense street grids of the coast to the rural expanses of Scarborough and Buxton, characterized by family-named landmarks such as Fogg Hill and Mitchell Hill.
