About this map

Provincetown sits at the northern tip of Cape Cod, showing a landscape defined by maritime infrastructure and shifting sands in the late 1950s. The town's historic density along the Provincetown Harbor contrasts with the expansive Province Lands State Reservation, where numerous freshwater bodies like Shank Painter Pond and Clapps Pond are scattered among the dunes. Marine navigation is heavily documented through the Race Point Lighthouse, Wood End Lighthouse, and the Municipal Wharf, reflecting the town's enduring reliance on the sea.
