1966 Map of Moorestown

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The suburban landscape of Burlington County is captured here during a period of rapid development, where established agricultural hamlets and historic centers meet the expanding infrastructure of the mid-20th century. The New Jersey Turnpike and the Conrail rail line cut across the terrain, shaping the growth of communities like Moorestown, Maple Shade, and Cherry Hill. Despite the encroaching residential density seen in developments such as Kingston Estates and Ramblewood, the map preserves the locations of older landmarks like the Colestown Cemetery and the Cistercian Monastery. The transition from rural to suburban is evident in the presence of the Moorestown Mall Shopping Center alongside traditional sites like Strawbridge Lake and the Wiley Mission. From the heights of Mount Laurel down to the banks of the North Branch Pennsauken Creek, this survey documents the integration of new transit corridors into the existing local geography of churches, cemeteries, and schools.
