1957 Map of Whiting

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Whiting serves as a critical rail junction in the mid-1950s, where the Pennsylvania and New Jersey Central Railroad lines intersect. This central New Jersey landscape is characterized by the expansive Fort Dix Military Reservation to the north and the Lebanon State Forest across the south. The area’s unique Pine Barrens ecology is evident through numerous specialized agricultural features like Cranberry Bogs and a complex drainage system including North Branch Mount Misery Bk and Hurricane Brook. Small settlements such as Roosevelt City and Wheatland (Pasadena) are tucked between these vast managed lands. The map also records early local infrastructure, including the Manchester Sch and the solitary Tower near the reservation boundary, providing a clear view of the region's mid-century rural and military character.
