About this map

The Christina River and its major tributaries, including White Clay Creek and Red Clay Creek, define the industrial and residential landscape of western New Castle County during the early 1950s. This survey records a period of suburban expansion emerging from the industrial corridors of the Baltimore and Ohio RR and the Pennsylvania RR. The city of Newark is shown in detail, including the U of Del Stadium and the specialized medical facilities at Bissell Sanatorium.
