1893 Map of Sandy Hook

USGS Topo · Published 1898

About this map

The Highlands of Navesink dominate the coastline of this late nineteenth-century survey, providing a natural vantage point over Sandy Hook Bay and the Atlantic. Along the peninsula, a series of maritime landmarks including the Sandy Hook Light, Waycake Light, and numerous Life Saving stations such as L.S. Station Seabright reflect the area's critical role in coastal navigation. Inland, the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Navesink River and the Swimming River, which drain the agricultural and milling districts near Tinton Falls and Leedsville.
