About this map

The Wachusett Reservoir defines the northwest corner of this 1969 survey, where the landscape is characterized by a series of drumlin-like hills including Tower Hill and Faggot Hill. The central portion of the sheet shows the transition from the village center of Shrewsbury to more developed residential corridors near Fairlawn and Edgemere on the shores of Lake Quinsigamond. This era shows significant transportation infrastructure, with the recently completed Interchange 23 and Interchange 22 connecting the Boston Worcester Turnpike to the expanding suburban landscape.
