About this map

Provincetown sits at the curved terminus of Cape Cod, defined by its historic maritime character and a landscape of shifting dunes. The map highlights the town's orientation toward Provincetown Harbor, featuring the prominent Pilgrim Monument and the busy Municipal Wharf. The infrastructure reflects a mid-century reliance on both traditional and emerging transport, including the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad line ending in the village and the Provincetown Airport tucked near Race Point.
