1960 Map of Newark
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The industrial corridor of the Mid-Atlantic reaches its mid-century peak on this sheet, anchored by the massive urban hubs of Newark and Philadelphia. The Delaware River serves as the central artery for commerce and navigation, passing through Trenton and flowing toward the maritime complexes of Philadelphia. Along the coast, the geography of the New York Harbor is clearly defined, featuring Staten Island, Governors Island, and the recreational shoreline at Coney Island. The map captures the significant military presence of the era, from Fort Dix Military Reservation to Fort Hancock on Sandy Hook.
