1955 Map of Orono

About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this mid-century survey, dividing the landscape into a series of interconnected mill towns and university lands. In Old Town and Orono, the river bifurcates around Orson Island and Indian Island, the latter noted as part of the Penobscot Indian Reservation. This era shows the extensive footprint of the University of Maine and its managed tracts, including the University Forest and Experimental Forest.
