About this map

Industrial and educational growth define the western landscape of Portland as it appeared in the mid-1950s. The Presumpscot River winds through the northern reaches, powering Cumberland Mills and passing Presumpscot Falls near West Falmouth Corner. The urban expansion of Westbrook and South Portland is evident, with neighborhoods like Sagamore Village and Rosemont filling the spaces between established hubs.
