1962 Map of Whitman

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The northern reaches of the Satucket River drainage define the landscape of this 1962 survey, which covers the industrial and residential heart of Plymouth County. Significant urban density is visible in Whitman and Rockland, while the eastern portion of Brockton shows the city's mid-century expansion. The map captures an era of post-war educational growth, evidenced by the large campus of Whitman-Hanson Regional High Sch and several parish-based institutions like St Bridgets Sch. The industrial heritage of the region is reflected in the numerous Cranberry Bogs dotting the lowlands near Burrage Pond and the extensive network of the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad lines. Recreational and conservation spaces are also well-established, including the expansive Ames Nowell State Park and the centrally located Island Grove Park.
