USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
Barnegat Bay defines the eastern boundary of this mid-century coastal survey, where the maritime and rail history of Ocean County are on full display. The Central RR of New Jersey runs north-to-south, connecting the fishing and residential centers of Lanoka Harbor, Forked River, and Waretown. This era shows a transition in transportation, as the Garden State Parkway (Toll Road) appears in its early development to the west, cutting through the pine barrens and intersecting New Jersey State Road 532.
