1903 Map of Franklin Furnace
USGS Topo · Published 1907About this map
Franklin Furnace and Ogdensburg anchor this industrial corridor in the early twentieth century, where the mining of zinc and iron ores shaped the local geography. The map reveals a dense network of transportation infrastructure required to move raw materials, including the New York Susquehanna and Western Railroad and the Lehigh and Hudson River Railroad which converged near Franklin Junction Mine. This confluence of rail and industry transformed the Wallkill River valley into a critical hub for New Jersey's mineral production.
