About this map

The Raritan River and its major tributaries serve as the organizing spine of this Somerset County landscape, where early 20th-century industry meets an established village network. The presence of the Water Power Canal Raceway near Somerville and Raritan highlights the era’s reliance on water-driven manufacturing, while the Delaware and Raritan Canal borders the southeastern edge near South Bound Brook.
