The Watchung Mountain ridgeline dominates this dense urban and suburban landscape, where the Cedar Grove Reservoir sits between the first and Second Watchung Mountain. The map illustrates the intensive development of Essex County, from the residential neighborhoods of Montclair and Glen Ridge to the industrial corridors along the Passaic River. Historical preservation and public land use are evident at the Thomas A Edison Nat Hist Site and the expansive Eagle Rock Reservation. This survey captures a transportation-heavy era where the Erie Railroad and Garden State Parkway serve as primary arteries through established boroughs like Bloomfield and Belleville. Numerous institutional landmarks, such as Overbrook Hospital and the State Teachers College, appear alongside a high density of religious centers including Beth Torah Temple and Sacred Heart Cathedral.
