1969 Map of Shrewsbury

About this map

The Wachusett Reservoir defines the northwestern corner of this landscape, its waters reaching into Andrews Harbor and Lord Cove below the Scar Hill Bluffs. Settlement patterns here reflect the mid-century growth of Worcester’s eastern suburbs, where the established centers of Shrewsbury and Northborough are joined by residential developments in Fairlawn and Edgemere. The area is notably dense with institutional land uses, from the sprawling grounds of the Grafton State Hospital to the Masonic Nursing Home and the Lyman State Sch.
