1995 Map of Perth Amboy
USGS Topo · Published 2000About this map
Industrial corridors and dense suburban developments characterize this mid-1990s landscape at the confluence of the Raritan River and Arthur Kill. The map highlights a complex transit network where the Garden State Parkway and New Jersey Turnpike converge near the Outerbridge Crossing Bridge, facilitating movement between Metuchen, Woodbridge, and Perth Amboy. Significant landmarks of civic and local history are prominent, including the Edison Memorial Tower in Menlo Park and the large State Prison complex near Hazelton. This area showcases the transition from heavy industry, represented by numerous petroleum storage sites and the Raritan Center, to established residential neighborhoods and cemeteries such as Beth Israel and Hazelwood Cemetery. Extensive green spaces like Ash Brook Swamp Reservation and Roosevelt County Park provide a notable contrast to the surrounding urban fabric.
