2016 Map of Dover

About this map

The Rockaway River winds through a dense industrial and residential corridor where the legacy of iron mining and transportation is still visible. In this modern survey, the dense street grids of Dover, Wharton, and Rockaway sit south of the sprawling Picatinny Arsenal complex. This area, historically central to the Morris Canal and rail networks, is marked by geographic features like Mine Hill and Randall Hill that hint at the region's mineral-rich past. To the northwest, the map transitions into the leisure-oriented landscapes around Lake Hopatcong and the Lake Shawnee development. Notable cultural landmarks include the Joe Kubert Sch of Cartoon and Graphic Art and several historic burial grounds such as Locust Hill Cem and Orchard Street Cem. The northern terrain is defined by steep ridges like Green Pond Mtn, separating narrow valleys filled with reservoirs and lakes.
