1888 Map of Sandy Hook

USGS Topo · Published 1888

About this map

Highlands of Navesink dominate the coastal topography of this Monmouth County landscape, where the Navesink Lights stand as a vital navigational landmark overlooking the Atlantic. The shoreline is defined by the narrow spit of Sandy Hook, dotted with specialized infrastructure including the L.S. Station Sandy Hook and the Sandy Hook Pier. Inland, the terrain transitions from the salt marshes near Raritan Bay to a complex network of creeks and brooks like Poricy Brook and New Swamp Brook that drain the interior.
