1954 Map of Asbury Park

About this map

The coastal Jersey Shore is characterized by its dense string of beach communities and inland water bodies in this mid-century survey. Major coastal settlements from Asbury Park and Ocean Grove south to Spring Lake are shown with their distinctive street grids and proximity to lake systems like Deal Lake, Sunset Lake, and Lake Como. The Shark River defines the central landscape, leading from the Shark River Inlet past Shark River Island toward the U S Military Reservation Evans Signal Laboratory.
