1952 Map of Brigantine Inlet

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Brigantine National Wildlife Refuge dominates this coastal landscape, protecting a labyrinth of salt marshes and tidal channels such as Great Thorofare and Mile Thorofare. The map details the complex geography of Galloway before modern development reached its northern reaches, showing isolated landmasses like Egg Island and Salt Island amidst the shifting waters of Great Bay. Along the southern coast, the city of Brigantine shows significant growth by the early 1970s, with its streets and piers stretching toward Steelman Bay and Widgeon Bay. The intricate network of the Intracoastal Waterway and its Alt Route navigate through the Brigantine Channel, while historical structures like the Ruins near Little Beach and various Piers reflect the area's long relationship with the sea and the sand.
