Atlantic City dominates the southern barrier island of this coastal survey, appearing at a pivotal moment of late 19th-century expansion. The urban grid is already dense, serviced by major transit arteries including the Philadelphia & Atlantic City Railroad and the West Jersey and Atlantic Railroad. Standing as a sentinel for mariners, the Absecon Light overlooks a complex maritime landscape of thoroughfares and sounds.
