Rahway and Linden anchor the northern reaches of this detailed survey, where the industrial and residential landscapes of northern New Jersey meet the complex waterways of the Arthur Kill. The map documents a dense network of suburban developments like Lynn Woodoaks and Woodbridge Oaks alongside established town centers such as Metuchen. A heavy concentration of memorial sites, including the Metuchen Colonial Cem and Beth Israel Memorial Park, provides significant data for genealogical research. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the industrial shipping channels of the Raritan River, featuring specialized zones like Red Root Reach and Keasbey Reach. This corridor is defined by massive infrastructure, including the Thomas A Edison Bridge and the Outerbridge Crossing, which facilitate the heavy transit and commerce of the New York-New Jersey borderlands.
