About this map

The Mason and Dixon Line serves as a prominent geographic divider on this map, marking the border between Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling campus of the University of Delaware in the east and the industrial presence of Elk Mills along the Big Elk Creek. This area preserves the complex boundary history of the Mid-Atlantic, featuring the Arc Corner and the Tangent Stone, which denote the precision of early surveying efforts.
