1973 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Pigeon Cove and the village of Rockport anchor this coastal survey, which highlights the industrial and maritime character of northern Cape Ann in the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by its relationship with the sea and its granite history, evidenced by numerous Quarry sites and the Quarry Res near Yankee Hill. The rugged shoreline is heavily documented, from the narrow finger of Bearskin Neck protecting Rockport Harbor to the offshore beacons at Thacher Island, where the North Tower and Cape Ann Lighthouse guided mariners through Sandy Bay.
