About this map

The Elkton Landing and the confluence of the Elk River and Northeast River serve as the focal point for this late 19th-century study of the Upper Chesapeake. Shipping and transport dominate the landscape, with the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal and its Pivot Bridge visible to the east, while the Town Pt. Wharf anchors the southern peninsula at Town Point Neck.
