About this map

Ocean City serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, situated on the narrow strip of Fenwick Island between the Atlantic Ocean and the inland bays. This 1943 War Department sheet, compiled by the Corps of Engineers, details the area's vital maritime and transport infrastructure during a critical era of Atlantic defense. The Baltimore and Eastern railroad terminates at the coast, connecting the mainland to the beach via a crossing over Sinepuxent Bay.
