Additional Information
First founded in 1630, Haverhill has a rich history deeply tied to the earliest days of the American Colonies and the evolution that would lead to the development of the United States following the American Revolution. Located some thirty-five miles north of Boston, Haverhill was experiencing a period of significant growth and prosperity at the time of this panoramic map's publication by one of the most prolific American cartographers of the time, Thaddeus Mortimer Fowler. Fowler is best known for his bird's eye perspectives, although he was also a photographer during the American Civil War. Fowler is the most collected cartographer in the Library of Congress's permanent collection.
Residents had flocked to the region during the nineteenth century, and Haverhill was experiencing a period of significant prosperity during the early parts of the twentieth century. Numerous manufacturing facilities and mills were located in the city, which offered substantial economic opportunities for residents and established numerous neighborhoods and communities in the city based on cultural lines and shared heritage. Bird's eye perspectives were widely popular during the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries and served as marketing materials to entice residents and merchants alike by featuring prominent civic features, educational facilities, and natural attractions.
The industrial revolution of the late nineteenth century brought significant growth to the region and furthered the development of Haverhill as it continued to become a part of the Boston metroplex. This is an authentic piece of cartographical history that transports the viewer back in time.
