Description

View of Canton, Norfolk County, M.A., 1918 / drawn & published by Hughes & Bailey.

This aero-view print of Canton, Massachusetts was drawn and published by Hughes & Bailey in 1917. Canton, southwest of Boston, was settled by Europeans in the mid-1600's and incorporated as a town in 1797. American patriot Paul Revere built and operated a copper rolling mill in Canton in the early 1800's.

In the early 1900's, Canton was an important railroad junction, and well located suburb to Boston.

The stone-arched railroad viaduct pictured here was built in 1835. It is still in use today.

The illustration features the town seal. Shown are buildings, bridges, labeled streets, railroad route and Blue Hills in the distance. There are border illustrations of the following:

• Memorial Hall.
