1906 Map of Lambertville

About this map

The Delaware River corridor serves as the primary artery for transport and industry in this 1906 survey, where the Delaware and Raritan Canal runs parallel to the Pennsylvania Railroad Belvidere Division. The twin towns of Lambertville and New Hope anchor the river crossing, surrounded by a landscape of significant elevation changes including Baldpate Mtn and Solebury Mountain. Inland, the map reveals a dense network of nineteenth-century agrarian settlements such as Ringoes, Sergeantsville, and Locktown, many of which developed around early road junctions and creek crossings.
