About this map

Shrewsbury and the surrounding Worcester County highlands are defined by a complex landscape of glacial hills and managed waters during the early 1940s. The northern reaches are dominated by the Wachusett Reservoir, showing detailed shorelines at Lord Cove and Andrews Harbor. This era represents a significant period of institutional development in the region, with the large campuses of the Masonic Hospital, Worcester Hospital, and Grafton State Hospital occupying prominent positions near the town centers.
