1995 Map of Milford

About this map

Milford serves as a focal point along the Delaware River, where the borough's grid is defined by the steep descent of Sawkill Creek and the proximity of The Knob. This late-twentieth-century landscape reflects a region deeply shaped by public conservation, with the Delaware Water Gap National Recreational Area encompassing the river's path and its significant islands like Minisink Island and Namanock Island. Across the water in New Jersey, smaller settlements such as Montague, Shaytown, and Hainesville are connected by rural routes past the Township Sch and Minisink Ch. The map details a transition from the structured streets of the county seat to the wilder reaches of the Delaware State Forest, where features like Raymondskill Falls and Indian Point mark the dramatic geology of the river valley. Local history is preserved in sites like Milford Cem and the Hainesville Cem.
