About this map

The Hackensack River and the Saddle River corridors anchor this pre-war survey of Bergen County, revealing a landscape transitioning from suburban estates to dense residential grids. The recently completed Oradell Reservoir dominates the eastern landscape, surrounded by emerging communities like Oradell, New Milford, and Dumont. The industrial and civic core of Hackensack is visible in high detail, featuring the Courthouse and Holy Name Hospital, while the Erie RR lines provide the primary infrastructure for commuters and local industry.
