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.
