1955 Map of Hackensack
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Hackensack River and its accompanying Oradell Reservoir anchor this mid-century look at the suburban growth of Bergen County. The landscape is a dense network of boroughs and townships, including the planned Radburn Community in Fair Lawn and the institutional grounds of Fairleigh Dickinson College. The transition from historic settlement to modern residential sprawl is evident in the purple-tinted urban extensions that surround traditional landmarks like the Zabriskie Von Steuben House. Long-standing local infrastructure, from the Erie RR lines to the expanding Garden State Parkway, illustrates the region's role as a major transportation corridor. Numerous neighborhood institutions are documented, from the St Stanislaus Kostka Sch to several historic burial sites like the Valleau Cemetery and the French Burial Ground.
