About this map

The US Naval Air Station dominates the central landscape of this 1947 study, situated just north of the borough of Lakehurst. This military installation is bordered by extensive pine barrens and a complex network of waterways, including the Main Branch Toms River and the Ridgeway Branch. The presence of the Central Railroad of New Jersey cutting through the terrain underscores the area's importance as a transportation and defense hub during the mid-century era.
