About this map

The Christina River and Delaware River define this mid-century industrial and residential landscape, showing the intensive post-war development south of Wilmington. The map captures a moment of significant infrastructure growth, with the massive Delaware Memorial Bridges connecting Delaware to Pennsville in New Jersey. Inland, the footprint of the Greater Wilmington Airport dominates the terrain near Wilmington Manor, while the Penn Central and Baltimore and Ohio railroads thread through heavy industrial zones and emerging suburbs like Elsmere and Minquadale.
