Portsmouth Map Art

Portsmouth's downtown sits on a peninsula bounded by the Piscataqua River to the west and Portsmouth Harbor to the east, with the river's sharp bend defining the city's footprint. Market Street runs the length of the peninsula as the main spine, while Congress Street parallels it one block inland—a tight colonial grid overlays the waterfront. The Memorial Bridge crosses the Piscataqua into Kittery, Maine, making the river the dominant feature on any map of the city.
