 | | In 1880, Newark's population stood at 136,508; in 1890 at 181,830; in 1900 at 246,070; and in 1910 at 347,000, a jump of 200,000 in three decades.(Cunningham, 201) As Newark's population approached a half million in the 1920s, the city's potential seemed limitless. |
 | | The still-wealthy Forest Hill, Newark, New Jersey is in the North Ward, as are heavily Latino areas west of Mt. |
 | | Newark built many public housing projects on superblocks in the Central Ward in the 19th century; the area's streets are hence no longer arranged in a grid. |
