1969 Map of Shrewsbury

About this map

Wachusett Reservoir anchors the northwest corner of this central Massachusetts landscape, where suburban expansion in the late 1960s meets older institutional landmarks and industrial corridors. The transition from town centers like Shrewsbury and Northborough to rural woodlots is marked by massive state facilities, including the Grafton State Hospital and Lyman State Sch. Transportation infrastructure defines the era, with the Conrail rail lines and the Boston Worcester Turnpike facilitating movement between local hubs like South Shrewsbury and South Berlin.
