2011 Map of Long Branch East

About this map

The Atlantic Ocean coastline defines this 2011 survey, where the urban density of Long Branch meets the barrier beach communities of the Jersey Shore. The map illustrates a highly developed maritime corridor, stretching from the residential streets of Elberon and West End in the south up through North Long Branch and Monmouth Beach. The narrow strip of land separating Shrewsbury Bay from the open sea is home to the distinct settlements of Galilee, Low Moor, and Sea Bright, highlighting the precarious geography of this coastal stretch. Inland, the suburban character of Rumson is visible, while offshore features like Shrewsbury Rocks and landmarks such as the Marathon Dance Pier emphasize the area's long-standing connection to both commercial and recreational seafaring. The map captures a landscape defined by its grid of coastal avenues and its proximity to the tidal waters of Branchport and its surrounding islands.
