1951 Map of Long Beach NE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Barnegat Light sits at the northern tip of Long Beach, marking the critical junction between the inlet and the open sea. This 1951 survey, with 1972 revisions, captures the thin coastal ribbon of Barnegat Light Boro Bdy as it transitions from the maritime settlement at the point down to Long Beach Park. The map is dominated by the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean and the interior waters of Barnegat Bay, illustrating the precarious nature of the barrier island's geography. To the west of the main beach, Vol Sedge appears as a distinct marshy feature within the bay. The map provides a look at the residential expansion of the early 1970s, shown in purple tint, contrasting with the mid-century shoreline and original settlement footprints.
