About this map

The Nashua River and the Boston and Maine Railroad define the industrial and military geography of central Massachusetts on this mid-century survey. The landscape is dominated by the Fort Devens Military Reservation, which includes extensive training grounds like the Sheridan Rifle Range and Stamp Range, alongside the Lovell Gen Hospital. These military installations are positioned adjacent to the town centers of Shirley and Leominster, highlighting the region's strategic importance during the early Cold War era.
