1960 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Rockport sits at the tip of Cape Ann, shown here in the early 1960s as a landscape defined by its coastal industries and maritime landmarks. The granite heritage of the region is evident in the numerous Quarry sites scattered near Pigeon Cove and Pigeon Hill. The town center shows a dense settlement pattern around Back Harbor, serviced by the Boston and Maine railroad line. To the south, residential development stretches toward Lands End and Bass Rocks, while several large recreational areas like the Rockport Golf Club appear.
