1942 Map of Whiting

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

Whiting serves as the central rail hub of this 1940s landscape, where the Central Railroad of New Jersey and Reading Lines intersect amidst the pine barrens of Ocean and Burlington Counties. The map reveals an economy deeply tied to the land, defined by numerous labeled Cranberry Bogs and early industrial sites like Dover Forge and Webbs Mill. To the northwest, the edge of Fort Dix Military Reservation borders the Lebanon State Forest, illustrating the transition from natural resource management to military training during the war years.
