1906 Map of Burlington

About this map

The Delaware River serves as the central artery for this early twentieth-century landscape, separating the townships of Bucks Co, Pennsylvania, from Burlington Co, New Jersey. The map reveals an intensive era of transportation, where the Delaware Division Pennsylvania Canal and the Trenton Water Power Race parallel the river, supporting a network of industrial landings such as Tullytown Wharf and Andalusia Wharf. The density of the rail network is striking, featuring the Philadelphia and Reading RR and the Trenton Cut-Off, which facilitated the movement of goods between Philadelphia and the New York markets.
