BEVERLY
BEVERLY, "The Garden City of the North Shore" is noted for its de- lightful climate and for its seven miles or more of beautiful ocean shore line, along which are extensive private estates and comfortable homes of year-round residents, as well as many exclusively summer homes occupied seven or eight months of the year by summer residents.
It is a city of broad, well-paved streets and avenues, with well-kept lawns, tall elms and maples on either side meeting and arching overhead.
Beverly is noted also for its manufactures. The first cotton mill in the United States was built and operated at Beverly. It is the birthplace of the shoe manufacturing industry in the United States; and it is to-day the home of the United Shoe Machinery Corporation.
LOCATION:
Beverly is located on the north shore of Massa- chusetts Bay, 18 miles from Boston, 38 miles from Portsmouth, N. H., and 90 miles from Portland, Maine; on the Boston & Maine railroad; and on the most popular motor route between Boston, Portland, and the White Mountains.
AREA: POPULATION:
The city of Beverly covers an area of 9,770 acres.
On the basis of information obtained at the time of printing the Beverly City Directory, Beverly's population was estimated to be approximately 26,000.
HISTORY: INDUSTRIES:
Beverly was founded in 1626; was incorporated as a town in 1668; and incorporated as a city in 1894.
The chief industries are the manufacture of shoes and machinery. There are more than 7,500 em- ployees in the various industries, with an average total weekly payroll of more than $225,000. Bev- erly is also a distributing centre for much of the coal and oil used in New England.
