Brighton on Atlascope: Exploring the Urban History of Brighton through Maps

How has the landscape of Brighton changed over time? How can you use digital map collections to investigate the history of a house, a neighborhood, or a city? How can the stories of places open up new perspectives on the past and present?

Join the Brighton Branch library and the Leventhal Map & Education Center at the Boston Public Library for an exploration of historic maps of Brighton, focused on the maps in the Leventhal Center’s Atlascope digital tool. We'll look at Brighton up close, answer questions in an interactive Q&A, and offer resources for further research with maps and geography.
