1948 Map of Delaware City

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Pea Patch Island and its defensive bastion, Fort Delaware, sit at the heart of the Delaware River in this postwar survey. The map details the strategic military and navigational landscape of the river, from the U S Reservation near Reedy Point to the historic grounds of Fort Mott State Park on the New Jersey shore. Along the western bank, the town of Delaware City serves as a hub where the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal meets the river, its streets extending toward the Governor Bacon Health Center.
