1948 Map of Rehoboth Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Rehoboth Beach sits at a transitional moment in the late 1940s, showing the early density of its street grid alongside the wide, undeveloped Sand Dunes stretching south toward Rehoboth Bay. The town is bordered by Lake Gerar to the north and Silver Lake to the south, the latter of which serves as a landmark for the Rehoboth State Bird and Game Refuge. The presence of the Pennsylvania (Delmarva Division) railroad and the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal underscores the vital transport infrastructure that linked these coastal resorts to inland commerce.
