About this map

The Passaic River and its industrial corridor dominate this late nineteenth-century landscape, where the Dundee Dam and Dundee Lake powered the growth of Paterson. The dense street grid of the city contrasts sharply with the nearby ridgelines of Watchung Mountain and High Mt. to the west. Infrastructure for a burgeoning population is evident through the Jersey City Waterworks Aqueduct and the Newark Waterworks facilities along the riverbank.
