1967 Map of Pocasset

About this map

Otis Air Force Base dominates the central landscape of this Upper Cape survey, showing the extensive runway infrastructure and facilities of the U.S. Military Reservation during the late 1960s. Along the western coastline, the varied shore of Buzzards Bay is marked by the Cape Cod Canal entrance and the distinct maritime communities of Gray Gables, Monument Beach, and Pocasset. The geography reveals a transition from the dense coastal settlements and the Mass Maritime Academy to the interior's glacial kettle ponds, including Snake Pond and Weeks Pond.
