Historic Map - Hoboken, NJ - 1904

City of Hoboken, New Jersey 1904.

Reproduction bird's-eye view map of Hoboken, Hudson County, New Jersey, drawn and published by Hughes & Bailey in 1903. Hoboken lies directly across the Hudson River from Manhattan. In 1904, its 14th Street Ferry ran from Hoboken's 14th Street Dock directly across to 14th Street in New York City. The Tietjan & Lang Dry Docks was established on Hoboken's waterfront in 1884, later to become Todd Shipyards. Maxwell House coffee was first manufactured in Hoboken in 1892. This map was published three years after a large fire destroyed Hoboken's Norddeutscher Lloyd Piers.
