1943 Map of Providence

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The industrial and maritime corridors of Narragansett Bay and the Blackstone River are frozen in time during the mid-war period. This Corps of Engineers survey illustrates the dense urban centers of Pawtucket, Central Falls, and Woonsocket, where the Nynh&H RR network and textile mill history are visibly etched into the landscape. Maritime infrastructure is highly detailed, featuring navigation aids like the Pomham Rock Lighthouse, Fuller Rock Lth, and Sabine Pt Lighthouse guarding the approaches to Providence.
