The map
Medford lies a few miles north of Boston, in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. The Mystic River winds through the city from west to east and divides it into two parts, with parkland and paths along its banks. To the north, the wooded hills and reservoirs of the Middlesex Fells Reservation form a large open area in sharp contrast with the dense residential streets to the south.
Medford is one of the oldest settlements in New England, and it has a surprising place in American culture. Lydia Maria Child's poem about going over the river and through the wood to grandfather's house describes a journey here, and James Lord Pierpont is said to have written Jingle Bells in the town. Tufts University's hilltop campus straddles the border with Somerville.
A Medford map poster brings all of this into one frame: the curve of the Mystic, the wide expanse of the Fells, the Tufts campus on its hill, and the highways, including Interstate 93, crossing the city. With water, woodland and tightly packed neighbourhoods side by side, it is one of the more varied maps in the Boston area.
The river curves through the middle of the city, lined by parkland and crossed by several bridges, forming the main natural axis of the map.
The large reservation to the north appears as a broad open area of woodland, trails and reservoirs, framing the city with open space.
The university's hilltop campus on the Somerville line forms a distinct cluster of buildings and paths with its own quiet internal order.
