1948 Map of Salisbury
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
Salisbury serves as the central hub for the Delmarva Peninsula on this mid-century survey, which reveals a landscape deeply connected by rail and river. The Pennsylvania RR and Baltimore and Eastern RR lines intersect at major inland towns like Georgetown, Milford, and Seaford, anchoring a transit network that moved the region's agricultural and maritime goods. Along the Atlantic coast, the map details the early resort footprints of Ocean City and Rehoboth Beach, while prominent maritime landmarks like the Cape May Lighthouse and Fenwick Island Lighthouse signal the vital shipping lanes of the Delaware Bay.
