1942 Map of Wachusett Mtn.

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

Wachusett Mountain dominates the northeast corner of this central Massachusetts landscape, providing the focal point for the Wachusett Mtn State Reservation and its surrounding network of hiking trails and lookout roads. By 1938, when this area was surveyed, the landscape was a mix of institutional grounds and emerging recreational areas. The Central New England Sanitorium and the State Sanitorium occupied significant acreage near Rutland, while the presence of Quabbin Aqueduct shafts—specifically Shaft 6, Shaft 5, and Shaft 4—marks the invisible engineering of the regional water system.
