1909 Map of Winnipesaukee

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The Boston and Maine RR winds along the southwestern shores of Lake Winnipesaukee, connecting the industrial centers of Laconia and Lakeport with the developing recreational landscape of the early twentieth century. This survey, conducted just after the turn of the century, details the intricate shoreline of the Meredith Neck and the many islands that define the lake's character, such as Beaver Is and Long Island. The map records a transition from traditional lakeside industries at Lees Mills and Moultonboro Falls to early tourism hubs like Interlaken Park and White Mountain Park. To the north and south, the landscape is anchored by the Ossipee Mountains and the Belknap Mountains, while a designated Steamboat Route cuts across the broad waters, illustrating the vital role of water transport before the dominance of the automobile.
