USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Rigby Yards and the Portland Terminal Railroad dominate the northern landscape of this coastal survey, highlighting the industrial importance of the region during the mid-20th century. The intricate shoreline of Saco Bay is defined by tidal inlets like Nonesuch Cove and the winding Libby River, which frame the prominent peninsula of Prouts Neck. Further inland, the map captures the transition from working agricultural lands and sand pits to suburban developments like Broadview Park and Sunset Park.
