1944 Map of Tuckernuck Island

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Tuckernuck Island and Muskeget Island sit isolated between the Nantucket Sound and the Atlantic Ocean in this mid-century survey. The map details the fragile, ever-shifting coastal geography of the western reaches of Nantucket, capturing the thin peninsula of Nantucket Island as it extends toward Smith Point. Interior features on Tuckernuck include North Pond and East Pond, while a solitary Tower stands on the western end of Muskeget, likely serving as a maritime navigational aid or observation post during the war years.
