1954 Map of Greenwood Lake

About this map

The New York and New Jersey state line bisects Greenwood Lake in this mid-century topographic study, capturing the rugged borderlands where Orange and Passaic counties meet. To the south, the industrial history of the region is evident near Ringwood, where an Inactive Iron Mine and the Ringwood Mill Pond sit adjacent to Ringwood Manor State Park. The map documents a landscape defined by seasonal camps and growing lakefront communities, including Sterling Forest, Awosting, and Lakeside.
