1907 Map of Sunapee

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Sugar River corridor serves as the industrial and transit spine of this Sullivan County region, connecting the manufacturing hub of Newport to the vast waters of Lake Sunapee. At the turn of the century, the Boston and Maine RR defined the western landscape, serving stops like North Newport P. O. and Kelleyville. To the east, the lake culture is in full bloom, featuring a dedicated Steamboat Route that linked waterfront landings such as Burkehaven, Blodgett Landing, and the seasonal enclaves of Brightwood and Oakland. The map reveals a transition from the agricultural uplands of Croydon and Springfield to a growing recreation economy. Notable early 20th-century landmarks include the Pillsbury State Forest Res in the south and the remote Chandlerville P. O., illustrating the era's mix of resource conservation and small-town postal geography.
