About this map

The Quaboag River valley serves as the central corridor for this early 1980s topographic study, connecting the industrial and residential centers of West Warren and Warren with the water-rich landscapes of Brookfield and West Brookfield. The region is defined by its extensive wetlands and glacial lakes, including the expansive Quaboag Pond and Lake Lashaway, which are framed by the protected acreage of the Quaboag Wildlife Management Area.

Transport and education infrastructure reflect late-twentieth-century development, with the Massachusetts Turnpike and Conrail lines cutting through the terrain near the Quaboag Regional High Sch. For those researching local history, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds, such as St Pauls Cem and the small Podunk Cem. Prominent landforms like Marks Mountain and Mt Dan rise above the river valley, while recreational spaces like Wells State Park and Spencer State Forest mark the eastern reaches of the quadrangle.
