About this map

Kittatinny Mountain and the Pahaquarry Range dominate this late 19th-century landscape, where the Delaware River carves its way through the iconic Delaware Watergap. The region is defined by a dense industrial and transportation network, featuring prominent Slate Quarries and the historic Oxford Furnace. Five different rail lines converge here, including the Delaware Lackawanna and Western RR and the Pennsylvania RR (Belvidere Division), illustrating the area's importance as a corridor for coal and iron during the late Victorian era.
