About this map

Paterson and its surrounding boroughs are shown at a peak of post-war suburbanization, where dense urban grids meet the rising slopes of the Watchung Mountains. The industrial heritage of the Passaic River is evident in the complex network of streets and rail lines including the Erie RR and the Lackawanna RR. The map illustrates a landscape of established neighborhoods, showing numerous public schools such as PS 22 and PS 10, alongside parochial institutions like St Josephs Sch.
