1901 Map of Sandy Hook

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

Fort Hancock and the Sandy Hook Light anchor the northern tip of this coastal survey, where the peninsula protects Sandy Hook Bay from the open Atlantic Ocean. The landscape is defined by a dense network of transit and maritime infrastructure, including the U.S. Government Railroad and multiple Life Saving Stations like L.S. Station Seabright. Inland, the Highlands of Navesink rise sharply above the shore, providing strategic vantage points marked by the Waackaack Beacon and Conover Beacon.
