USGS Topo · Published 1910About this map
The Raritan River and its numerous tributaries dominate this early 20th-century landscape, illustrating the complex water-power and transportation network of central New Jersey. The confluence of the North Branch Raritan River and the South Branch Raritan River defines the western approach to the county seat at Somerville. Industrial and infrastructure development is evident in the Water Power Cos. Raceway near the main river channel and the critical path of the Delaware and Raritan Canal near South Boundbrook.
