About this map

The Stillwater River and Quinapoxet River converge in the south, feeding the Stillwater Basin and Thomas Basin during a period of significant water infrastructure development. A notable engineering feature is Shaft 1 along the Quagbin Aqueduct, part of the massive regional effort to secure water supplies for the Boston area. The village of Oakdale sits near the base of these reservoirs, while the Boston and Maine Railroad creates a transportation corridor through Sterling Junction.
