1944 Map of Winsor Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The Quabbin Reservoir dominates this 1940s landscape, illustrating the massive scale of the water project that fundamentally altered the geography of central Massachusetts. Surveyed just after the reservoir was filled, the map shows the prominent Prescott Peninsula extending into the water, once home to towns since submerged. Essential infrastructure of the system is clearly marked, including the primary Winsor Dam and the adjacent Quabbin Dike.
