Squantum Naval Air Station at High Tide
Bring a little Boston home.
Die-Cut Sticker · White · 4 × 4 inches
Pick up the notebook or smooth case that goes from desk to bag through the day, with the sticker's small picture attached to something already part of the routine. Tidal water spreads across Squantum's apron and aircraft area, giving the coastal air-station view a particular high-tide condition to notice.
The source records a February 25, 1944 flooding of apron and aircraft area. The view preserves a particular relationship between Boston Harbor and its shore. Water, buildings and routes form a record of local maritime life at the time of the source.
The flooded apron connects aviation facilities with their coastal setting, keeping the tidal shoreline's effects within Squantum's historical air-station record. Place it on a suitable smooth surface, or share the small view with someone interested in the place.
