USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Fort Delaware sits prominently on Pea Patch Island, anchoring a landscape defined by the strategic and commercial utility of the Delaware River just after the war. The waterway is a hive of maritime infrastructure, featuring the critical junction of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal near Delaware City. Civil and military history converge here, with the Finns Point National Cemetery and Fort Mott State Park on the New Jersey shore facing the Governor Bacon Health Center and various U S Reservations on the Delaware side.
