About this map

The coastal village of Corea anchors this mid-century topographic study, showing the intricate relationship between the Downeast fishing economy and the granite-bound shoreline. Situated at the mouth of Gouldsboro Bay, the settlement is defined by Corea Harbor and a network of named points like Cranberry Point and Dolly Head. The landscape is dominated by extensive Heath wetlands and tidal mudflats, particularly around Dyer Harbor and Pinkham Bay. Inland, the settlement of Pigeon Hill sits near the prominence of the same name, while the historical Carrying Place indicates a traditional portage point between the harbor and Wood Pond Cove. This map captures a coastal topography prior to modern development, where family-named landmarks like Stanley Point and Rogers Point delineate the complex finger-like peninsulas of the Maine coast.
