Cape May Point and the surrounding coastline of Lower Township define this detailed survey of New Jersey's southernmost tip. The map captures the complex hydrology of the peninsula, where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean. Inland, established communities like Cold Spring and West Cape May are shown with their modern street grids and local landmarks, including Lighthouse Pond and Lake Lily. The eastern marshlands are a labyrinth of tidal water bodies such as Jarvis Sound, Reubens Thorofare, and Skunk Sound Ditch, reflecting the area's maritime character.
