2011 Map of Arthur Kill
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Arthur Kill serves as the industrial and geographical spine of this maritime corridor, separating the industrial reaches of Linden and Carteret in New Jersey from the residential and marshy landscapes of Staten Island. The map documents a complex landscape where infrastructure and history collide, from the sprawling Fresh Kills Landfill to the New York City Farm Colony. Notable for genealogists are the numerous burial grounds, including the Baron Hirsch Cemetery and United Hebrew Cemetery. The Staten Island Railroad connects a string of South Shore communities such as Great Kills, Annadale, and Tottenville, while the Outerbridge Crossing provides a vital link to the mainland. Waterways like Richmond Creek and Fresh Kills snake through the interior, reflecting the area's transition from marshland to suburban development and heavy industry.
