1995 Map of Weehawken

About this map

The dense urban industrial corridor of Bergen and Hudson Counties is defined by a complex network of marshes, rail yards, and riverfronts. In the mid-1990s, the Hackensack River and Passaic River frame a landscape of heavy transport infrastructure, including the massive rail operations at Croxton Yards and the sprawling Teterboro Airport. High-density residential zones in Union City, West New York, and Passaic contrast sharply with the preserved wetlands of the Saw Mill Creek State Wildlife Management Area and the Walden Swamp. The map provides significant detail for genealogists and local historians, featuring numerous educational and religious landmarks such as Fairleigh Dickinson University and St Marys High Sch, alongside a concentration of burial grounds including Flower Hill Cem and the Palisades Cem situated along the heights overlooking the Hudson River.
