This vintage map of Lambertville, New Jersey was created in 1883 and published by the O.H. Bailey & Co. of Boston, Massachusetts. This restored edition brings the historic Lambertville map to life while preserving the original linework and the Delaware River, its bridge crossing, densely packed streets, canal, railroads, mills, and the ring of vignettes that frame the view below.
About This Historic Map
Drawn from an elevated bird's-eye perspective, this map presents Lambertville in the 1880s, when the town was shaped by its river commerce, canal traffic, railroads, and manufacturing mills. The overall view sweeps across the town's tightly gridded streets nestled between the surrounding hills and the water, showing homes, factories, and rail lines that carried the community's life and industry.
Notable features shown on the map include the Delaware River with its long bridge crossing, and the framing panel of vignettes running along the bottom, which highlights individual mills, factories, and prominent buildings that defined Lambertville in this era. Woven through the view are many of the historic streets and rail lines that shaped daily life around the town.
For anyone who grew up in Lambertville, walked its streets down to the river, or traces their family roots to this hardworking mill town, this map is more than a historic view. It captures the bridge over the Delaware River, the crowded rooftops, and the busy factories along the water, along with the memories that keep people connected to Lambertville.
A statement piece for any room, this reproduction is printed using KNOWOL's restored version of the 1883 Lambertville map, preserving the historic character of the original while adding depth, warmth, and visual clarity. It makes a meaningful addition to a home, office, library, den, family room, or local history collection.
