1954 Map of Chester

About this map

The hills of Morris County in the mid-1950s are defined by the convergence of agricultural tradition and industrial transit, with the New Jersey Central RR and the Lackawanna and Western RR cutting through the valleys. The landscape transitions from the recreational waters of Budd Lake in the northwest down to the protected woodlands of Hacklebarney State Park in the south. Between these points, the area is dotted with historic local hubs like Chester, Flanders, and Succasunna.
