1941 Map of Marcus Hook

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

Marcus Hook dominates the shoreline in this pre-war survey, serving as a critical junction for the Pennsylvania RR, Baltimore and Ohio RR, and Reading RR. The industrial and maritime character of the riverfront is evident through the presence of the U S Quarantine Sta and a sprawling U S Military Reservation situated across the Delaware River on the New Jersey side. The map documents the dense transition from urban centers like Claymont and Upland to the rural crossroads of Delaware County.
