About this map

The industrial and maritime activity of the Fore River corridor defines this coastal landscape just before the United States entered World War II. The massive Fore River Shipyard and the adjacent Electric Power Plant highlight the era's heavy infrastructure, while the United States Naval Reservation occupies a significant tract of land between the river and Hingham Harbor. The interior reveals a transition from these dense industrial zones to established residential neighborhoods and rural pockets, dotted with local landmarks like the Old South Meeting House and several community institutions including the Bond Sch and Hunt Sch.
