1947 Map of Boonton

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Boonton and its surrounding townships in Morris County are defined by a complex hydraulic and industrial landscape in this post-war era survey. The Rockaway River winds through the central valley, feeding into the massive Boonton Reservoir and the Jersey City Reservoir, which dominate the eastern and southern terrain. In the northwest, the presence of the Hibernia Mine and the Wharton and Northern railroad reflect the region's deep ties to iron mining and mineral transport.
