1955 Map of Mays Landing
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The Great Egg Harbor River carves a central path through this mid-century landscape, acting as a primary artery for small riverfront settlements like Catawba and Thompsontown. In the northwest, Lake Lenape and its Lookout Tower anchor the prominent county seat at Mays Landing, where the local economy transitions from the water's edge to the inland pine barrens. The presence of the Atlantic City Racetrack near McKee City highlights the post-war recreational development of Atlantic County, contrasted by the quiet persistence of agricultural and religious hubs like the German Ch and Union Cem.
