1893 Map of Cape May

USGS Topo · Published 1912

About this map

The tip of the Cape May peninsula is defined by a dense network of late 19th-century rail infrastructure and coastal life saving stations. At this time, the southern Jersey Shore was a patchwork of developing resort towns and vital maritime markers. The West Jersey and Seashore R.R. and the Atlantic City R.R. provide clear evidence of the era's expanding tourism and transportation routes, terminating at Cape May City and Holly Beach.
