1995 Map of Trenton East

About this map

The Delaware River serves as the focal point for this mid-1990s landscape, marking the historic boundary between New Jersey and Pennsylvania. On the eastern banks, the dense residential and industrial sprawl of Trenton gives way to suburban developments such as Hamilton Square and Mercerville. Along the southern reach, Bordentown sits near the confluence of Crosswicks Creek, where the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park offers a preserved corridor of transport history. The map captures a high degree of institutional development, featuring the State Youth Correctional Facility and the State Industrial School. Recreational and religious sites are scattered throughout, from the Roebling Memorial County Park to St Anthonys Convent, illustrating the complex social fabric of Mercer County during this era of continued regional expansion.
