1903 Map of Fire Island
USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
Fire Island Beach stretches across the southern expanse of this survey, serving as a narrow protective barrier between the Atlantic Ocean and the Great South Bay. Along this thin ribbon of sand, the safety of maritime travel is anchored by the Fire Island L.H. and a string of Life Saving Stations, including Point of Woods L.S.S. and Lone Hill L.S.S.. These landmarks emphasize the treacherous nature of the coastline before modern navigation, while the interior of the island remains largely undeveloped, dotted only by small outposts and Fire Islands in the bay.
