AMHERST Tucked away at the back of a North Pleasant Street property is a small wooden A-frame building with the letters “ODT” hanging from the roof. Inside, the back wall is made up of a series of wooden boxes, many of which hold stacks of folded maps or paper manuals explaining how to understand the cartography.
The structure is the workspace of Bob Abramms, who founded ODT Maps in the early ’80s, a company that recently dissolved and is currently donating its maps and materials to local libraries, businesses and mission groups.
Despite the ODT’s end, its work has recently garnered some new attention from an anonymous donor, affectionately nicknamed “Don the donor” by Abramms.
