About this map

Portsmouth sits at the heart of this coastal study, where the Piscataqua River separates New Hampshire from Maine. The landscape is defined by its deep maritime history and mid-century infrastructure, featuring the General Sullivan Bridge and Memorial Bridge connecting the city to Kittery. Extensive residential growth is visible in neighborhoods like Pannaway Manor, Meadowbrook, and Portsmouth Plains, while the Spaulding Turnpike carves through the peninsula towards Dover Pt.
