1969 Map of Port Jervis North

About this map

Port Jervis sits at the dramatic confluence of the Delaware River and the Neversink River, serving as a focal point for late 1960s industry and transport where New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey meet. The Erie-Lackawanna railroad tracks parallel the riverbanks, supporting a landscape defined by water management and transit. Three major reservoirs—Reservoir No. 1, Reservoir No. 2, and Reservoir No. 3—are tucked into the hills above the city, while several swamps like Steeny Kill Swamp and Long Swamp dominate the northern terrain.
