1960 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The rocky promontory of Pigeon Hill and the granite heritage of the Cape Ann shoreline define this 1960 revision of the Rockport coast. Numerous Quarry sites are visible near Pigeon Cove, testifying to the industry that shaped the landscape before the era of widespread coastal tourism. The town center of Rockport sits sheltered behind its Back Harbor, where the Boston and Maine RR terminates, connecting this maritime community to the broader rail network.
