USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
The confluence of the Raritan River and the Millstone River serves as the industrial and transit nexus of this mid-century Somerset County landscape. The area is defined by a dense concentration of rail infrastructure, where the Central Railroad of New Jersey and the Reading Railroad intersect at the heart of Bound Brook. This network supported the growth of manufacturing centers like Manville and South Bound Brook, which appear here at their post-war industrial peak.
