This bird's-eye view shows the Assabet Manufacturing Company's mill complex in Maynard, Massachusetts, a factory town on the Assabet River west of Boston. The lithograph, drawn by C.H. Vogt and published by J.C. Hazen of Boston around 1879, presents the buildings, yards, and surrounding village from an angled height, as if seen from above. Views like this were popular in the 1870s and 1880s because they let factory owners and customers see an entire industrial works at a glance. Mill towns of this era were often built around a single manufacturer, so the view also records how the company's buildings and housing shaped the community.
