1951 Map of Whiting

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Fort Dix Military Reservation and Lebanon State Forest dominate this mid-century landscape in Ocean County, where the Pine Barrens' industrial and transit legacy is clearly etched into the terrain. The village of Whiting serves as a critical junction for the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Jersey Central Railroad, reflecting the area's importance as a transportation hub for timber and agricultural products. Throughout the low-lying wetlands, numerous Cranberry Bogs follow the courses of Bridge Branch and North Branch, illustrating the specialized hydrology of New Jersey's coastal plain. Small settlements like Roosevelt City, Pasadena, and Bullock are connected by a network of sandy tracks and early paved routes such as the Rockefeller Memorial Highway, showing a region defined by its conservation areas and military footprint.
