2023 Map of Roosevelt

About this map

Roosevelt and its surrounding Monmouth County townships are defined by a complex network of headwater streams and small mill ponds that have shaped the region's development for generations. The landscape is characterized by the branching waters of Assunpink Creek, Rocky Brook, and the Millstone River, which historically provided the power for early local industry at sites like Francis Mills. This 2023 survey documents a mix of agricultural land and suburban growth, interspersed with significant local landmarks including the Old Yellow Meeting House Cem and Emleys Hill Cem. Several notable water bodies, such as Perrineville Lake and Prospertown Lake, serve as focal points for the surrounding rural communities of Clarksburg, Perrineville, and Red Valley. The map also captures the path of the Interstate 195 corridor as it cuts through the center of these long-established settlements, illustrating the modern infrastructure that connects this portion of New Jersey.
