1962 Map of Orleans

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Orleans and Eastham occupy this narrow stretch of the Lower Cape, where the landscape is defined by the transition from the quiet tidal flats of Cape Cod Bay to the exposed Atlantic Ocean. The region's agricultural past is evident in the numerous Cranberry Bogs scattered near East Orleans and the inland kettle ponds like Minister Pond and Great Pond. Transportation patterns at the time centered on the New York New Haven and Hartford rail line, which cuts through the center of the peninsula toward the northern settlements.
