2016 Map of Newtonville

About this map

Newtonville and the uniquely named Gigantic City anchor this landscape within the New Jersey Pine Barrens, where a complex network of waterways defines the terrain. The Great Egg Harbor River flows through the southern reaches, fed by the Hospitality Branch, Penny Pot Stream, and Indian Br. These waters historically supported local industry, evidenced by the Pancoast Mill Pond near the settlement of Pancoast. Transportation corridors are a defining characteristic, with the modern Atlantic City Expressway and Black Horse Pike cutting through the forested blocks. The map reveals a mix of dense residential grids and remote cedar swamps, particularly around Makepeace Lake and Makepeace Stream. Genealogists may find interest in the Newtonville Cem, while local historians can trace the paths of the Conrail line and the White Horse Pike as they pass through Da Costa and Barnard.
