1995 Map of Bridgeport

About this map

The industrial corridor of the Delaware River anchors this mid-1990s survey, showing the complex interplay between heavy transportation and coastal wetlands. On the Pennsylvania shore, the dense urban grid of Chester is visible, featuring landmarks like the Crozer Seminary and Pennsylvania Mil College alongside Westinghouse Village. Across the water in New Jersey, the landscape shifts from the industrial docks of Paulsboro and Gibbstown to the expansive Cedar Swamp. This map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure supporting the region, including the Conrail rail lines and the Seaplane Base near Essington. Inland, the survey preserves the locations of older rural landmarks such as Solomons Graveyard, Hendrickson Millpond, and several family-named cemeteries that predate the suburban expansion of the late 20th century.
