About this map

East Lake and the Lake Neighborhood define the settlement patterns of this coastal landscape on the edge of the Intracoastal Waterway. The environment is dominated by an intricate network of wetlands and coastal features, including the massive Durant Island and prominent landforms such as Sound Point and Briery Hall Point. This 2022 survey captures the modern infrastructure connecting these isolated reaches, notably the Alligator River Brg which provides the primary transit link across the water.

The map reveals a landscape defined by names like Tom Mann Creek and Ned Bees Point, suggesting a history of local maritime and coastal activity. Roads such as Lake Neighborhood Rd and Robertsons Landing Rd trace the thin lines of human presence through the marshes toward Deep Bay and Broad Creek, illustrating the delicate balance between the peninsula's residents and the surrounding sound waters.
