1956 Map of York Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Ogunquit and the York shoreline appear in this mid-century survey as a sequence of established summer colonies and working maritime coves. The map reveals the layout of the coastal landscape before modern development intensified, showing the Blue Star Memorial Highway as a primary artery while a former Railroad Grade traces the terrain inland. Notable landmarks like the Cape Neddick Lighthouse at The Nubble anchor the rocky headlands, while the intricate topography of Bald Head Cliff and Wadleighs Head defines the jagged interface between land and the Atlantic Ocean.
