About this map

Egg Harbor City anchors this portion of the Atlantic County landscape, characterized by its rigorous grid of streets named after international cities and local thoroughfares. To the northwest, the settlement of Elwood sits along the White Horse Pike, while smaller clusters like Magnolia, Devonshire, and Carmantown illustrate the rural residential patterns of the area. The terrain is defined by a complex network of waterways, including Makepeace Stream feeding into Makepeace Lake and numerous branches such as Petties Br and Indian Cabin Cr that drain the coastal plain.

Modern transit corridors like the Atlantic City Expy contrast with historical landmarks such as Laurel Hill Cem and Egg Harbor Cem. The map provides a clear view of the transition from dense urban planning in the city center to the surrounding wetlands and streams, like Landing Cr and Banding Cr, which remain largely undeveloped. This 2019 survey documents the enduring layout of these communities and their relationship with the southern New Jersey environment.
