1893 Map of Burlington

About this map

The Delaware River serves as the central artery for commerce and transport in this late 19th-century survey, separating the burgeoning townships of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, from Burlington County, New Jersey. The landscape is defined by its industrial and social infrastructure, featuring the sprawling State Lunatic Asylum near Trenton and numerous maritime access points like Tullytown Wharf and Dunks Ferry. A dense network of rail lines, including the Philadelphia and Newtown Railroad and the Amboy Division Pennsylvania Railroad, reflects a region in transition from rural agriculture to an integrated industrial corridor.
