1972 Map of Lambertville East

About this map

Temperance and Lambertville serve as the primary hubs in this southern Monroe County landscape, characterized by a dense network of drainage canals and agricultural townships during the early 1970s. The map illustrates a transition from rural crossroads like Ida Center and Morocco toward more suburban footprints, particularly evident in the cluster of schools such as Bedford High Sch and Jackman Road Sch. Water management is central to the area's geography, with the Summerfield and Ida Drain and Erie Drain crisscrossing the terrain to support the low-lying fields.
