1907 Map of Sunapee

About this map

Lake Sunapee serves as the central focal point of this Sullivan County landscape, its waters traced by a designated Steamboat Route that connected various waterfront landings at the beginning of the twentieth century. The eastern shore is dotted with early resort and recreational developments such as Soo Nipi Park, Blodgett Landing, and Lakeside, reflecting the area's established identity as a summer destination. To the west, the industrial and commercial hub of Newport sits at the junction of the Sugar River and its south branch, where the Boston and Maine RR provided vital transportation links.
