About this map

Quabbin Reservoir dominates this 1952 topographic study, illustrating the landscape of Franklin and Worcester counties following the creation of the massive impoundment. The map documents a geography of high ridges and isolated islands, where former hilltops such as Mount L and Russ Mtn now stand surrounded by water. The Daniel Shays Highway runs along the western edge, providing a transportation corridor past established points like New Salem and Cooleyville.
