1966 Map of Wilmington

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Wilmington and Philadelphia anchor a mid-century transportation corridor where the Delaware River separates the industrial centers of Pennsylvania and Delaware from the southern New Jersey coastal plain. This 1970s topographic-bathymetric revision details a landscape defined by massive infrastructure projects, including the New Jersey Turnpike and the Delaware Memorial Bridge, which facilitated the rapid post-war growth of suburbs like Cherry Hill and Lindenwold.
