1945 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Thacher Island and its twin North Tower structures sit off the coast of this Essex County seafaring landscape, which was revised just after the war. The map reveals the dense coastal development of Rockport and Pigeon Cove, where the granite industry and maritime commerce shaped the shoreline. From the prominent heights of Pool Hill and Pigeon Hill to the jagged coastline at Halibut Pt, the terrain shows a mix of residential expansion and preserved open space like the Rockport Golf Club.
