1954 Map of Boonton

About this map

Splitrock Reservoir and the Boonton Reservoir dominate the landscape of Morris County in this mid-century update. The map documents the post-war suburban transition, particularly in the south where Denville, Tabor, and Lake Hiawatha show significant expansion through residential purple-tinting. To the north, the wooded reaches of Farny State Park and the Stony Brook Mountains remain relatively undeveloped, anchored by older hamlets like Marcella and Hibernia.
