1967 Map of Sagamore

About this map

The Cape Cod Canal bisects this coastal landscape, serving as the dominant geographic and economic artery between the mainland and the peninsula. The 1960s infrastructure is well-defined, featuring Interchange 1 and the Mid-Cape Highway cutting through the northern reaches of Otis Air Force Base and the Shawme-Crowell State Forest. Coastal settlements such as Sagamore Beach and Ellisville are depicted alongside local landmarks like Harlows Landing and the Whitecliffs Country Club. Inland, the terrain is characterized by a dense network of glacial kettle ponds, including White Island Pond and Big Sandy Pond, many of which are surrounded by cranberry bogs. This edition provides a detailed look at the area's mid-century development, from the Sagamore Sch to the Pumping Sta in Bournedale, tracing the evolution of these historic seaside communities.
