1946 Map of Wilmington
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Camden anchor this comprehensive post-war look at the Mid-Atlantic’s industrial and maritime heart. The map details the vital shipping lanes of the Delaware River and Delaware Bay, guarded by historical fortifications like Fort Delaware on Pea Patch Island and Fort Mott to the east. Extensive rail networks, including the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines, connect the urban centers to the burgeoning resort communities of Atlantic City, Ocean City, and Wildwood.
