1944 Map of Newark

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Philadelphia and Newark anchor this mid-century view of the Atlantic seaboard, showing the intense corridor of industry and transport connecting the Delaware River to Lower New York Bay. The map traces the dense rail networks of the Pennsylvania RR and Reading RR before the full dominance of the interstate system, though the early routes of the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway are beginning to reshape the landscape.
