The industrial hub of Paterson and its surrounding residential boroughs are shown here during the height of the second World War, as the city densifies along the curves of the Passaic River. While the urban core is tightly gridded, the landscape transitions sharply into the more open terrain of West Paterson, Totowa, and the rising elevations of High Mtn. This era is defined by a reliance on the Erie RR and DL & W RR, which connect the factory districts to outlying communities like Hawthorne and Glen Rock.
