1906 Map of Wilmington
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal cuts a prominent east-west line across the lower half of this landscape, anchoring a complex network of maritime and rail infrastructure at the turn of the century. Military interests are well-represented by a trio of defenses guarding the Delaware River channel: Fort Delaware on Pea Patch Id, Fort Mott on the eastern shore, and Fort Dupont near Delaware City. To the north, the industrial footprint of Wilmington and New Castle is evident through extensive rail corridors like the Philadelphia Mill R R and the Maryland Division line.
