1899 Map of Germantown

USGS Topo · Published 1899

About this map

Philadelphia and its northern suburban townships are revealed in detail just before the turn of the century. The dense residential grid of Germantown gives way to a complex network of turnpikes and rail lines, including the Phila and Reading RR and the Trenton Br. Key infrastructure like the Queen Lane Reservoir and the U.S. Arsenal near the Delaware River highlight the area's industrial and municipal growth.
