1943 Map of High Bridge
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Musconetcong River and its valley serve as the industrial and transit spine of this wartime Hunterdon County landscape. Significant early 1940s infrastructure is visible, including the Asbury Graphite Refinery and the Tidewater Tank Farm near Changewater. The map documents a critical era for public institutions, showing the sprawling grounds of the NJ State Hospital and the NJ State Reformatory. Railroad dominance is evident where the Delaware Lackawanna and Western Railroad and Central Railroad of New Jersey converge at Hampton Junction. The township of High Bridge centers on Solitude Lake and the South Branch Raritan River, while civic life is anchored by locations like St Anne Church, the Clinton H School, and several rural schoolhouses in outlying hamlets like Bunnvale.
