With New Brunswick on the right, Piscataway on the left, and Highland Park in the far upper left, this south-facing photo contrasts the broad band of the Raritan River with the narrow dark line of the Delaware & Raritan Canal paralleling it on the right. Construction of the new Route 18/River Road intersection is at the far left. Note the broad sweeps of mown lawn along the road and in Johnson Park, but note also the greater concentration of riverside trees in the north end of Johnson Park upstream of the Landing Lane Bridge (foreground). This is the region of Johnson Park's streamside nature trail. (Photo: Peili Zhang. Pilot: Eli Rohn of Aerial Operations, summer 2003.)
