About this map

Quabbin Reservoir dominates this landscape, reflecting the massive engineering changes of the mid-20th century in Central Massachusetts. This survey captures the area following the flooding of the Swift River Valley, showing the prominent Prescott Peninsula and islands like Little Quabbin that were once high ridges. Infrastructure critical to the metropolitan water supply is clearly marked, including the primary Winsor Dam, the Quabbin Dike, and the start of the Quabbin Aqueduct.
