1969 Map of Shrewsbury

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Wachusett Reservoir and its southeastern shores anchor this survey of the Worcester area, where the rugged terrain is defined by dozens of named hills like Longley Hill, Barnard Hill, and Sulphur Hill. The residential growth of Shrewsbury and Northborough is evident, particularly in the sprawling residential subdivisions of South Shrewsbury and Fairlawn near the edge of Lake Quinsigamond. This 1960s-era landscape reveals a community transitioning toward modern suburbanization, yet it remains closely tied to its geographic features such as Rocky Pond, Stiles Reservoir, and the Assabet River.
