1957 Map of Wickford

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Quonset Point Naval Air Station and the Construction Battalion Center dominate the shoreline north of Wickford, reflecting the significant military footprint in mid-century Rhode Island. The landscape transitions from these industrial and naval installations into the historic coastal villages of Hamilton, Belleville, and Saundertown, where the economy was traditionally tied to the West Passage and local water power. The New York New Haven and Hartford RR provides a vital inland connection, passing through Wickford Junction and Davisville.
