1973 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Pigeon Cove and the working harbor of Rockport define this coastal landscape, where the granite industry's legacy is visible in numerous quarries and reservoirs like Quarry Res. The 1970s shoreline is meticulously detailed, from the rocky outcrops of Halibut Pt to the sandy stretches of Long Beach. Navigational landmarks such as the Cape Ann Lighthouse on Thacher Island and the lighthouse on Straitsmouth Island overlook Sandy Bay, marking the entrance to one of the region's most famous maritime corridors.
