The map
About this Wakefield map poster
Wakefield lies about ten miles north of Boston, and its map is organised around water. Lake Quannapowitt fills the northern part of town with a broad oval shape. The town common and the main street run along its southern shore, and Crystal Lake sits to the east as a smaller companion.
A commuter rail line runs north to south through the town, with stations in the centre and at Greenwood. Interstate 95, also known as Route 128, crosses the northern edge. Between these lines, residential streets curve and loop in the irregular way typical of older Massachusetts towns.
The town took its name in 1868 from Cyrus Wakefield, whose rattan furniture business was a major local employer. A Wakefield map poster shows the lake, the rail corridor and the tree-lined streets that grew up around them.

Rail through the centre
The commuter line draws a steady north–south stroke through Wakefield, with the downtown and its station set right beside the lake and the common.
Highway edge
Interstate 95 curves across the north side of town. Its interchange loops are a sharp geometric contrast to the softer residential street pattern.

Why Wakefield
A map that means something
People who have walked the lake loop, taken the train into Boston or raised a family on these streets tend to feel strongly about Wakefield. The lake makes the map instantly recognisable, even to guests who have never been there.
You can personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, for example with a move-in date or a family name. The poster comes in five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand.
