1968 Map of Salem Depot

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Salem Depot and the surrounding borderlands of Rockingham County, New Hampshire, and Essex County, Massachusetts, appear here in a period of significant suburban expansion and recreation. The landscape is defined by its numerous glacial lakes and ponds, from the sprawling Arlington Mill Reservoir to Island Pond with its many named islands like Escumbuit Island. Notable recreational landmarks include the historic Rockingham Park and Canobie Lake Park, while the Northeastern Glider Port points to mid-century aviation interests. Local history is deeply embedded in the map's smaller settlements and crossroads like Cowbell Corners, Wilson Corners, and Cluffs Crossing. Educational institutions such as the venerable Atkinson Academy and Salem High Sch serve the growing population. The Boston and Maine Railroad corridors provide a industrial backbone, cutting through a terrain of drumlins and ridges like Mystery Hill and Spicket Hill.
