1955 Map of Paterson
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The Passaic River anchors this mid-century view of industrial and residential growth across the Paterson and Clifton landscape. The dense urban grid of the river valley contrasts sharply with the looming presence of Second Watchung Mountain and High Mountain to the west. This 1955 revision shows a region in heavy transition, with infrastructure like the Garden State Parkway and the Erie RR cutting through established neighborhoods and past numerous institutional sites like the State Teachers College and the Sanatorium.
