About this map

Five Mile Beach serves as the focal point for this 2014 survey, illustrating the dense grid of vacation communities along the Atlantic. The map documents the intricate balance between urban development and the tidal wetlands of the Jersey Shore. While Wildwood and North Wildwood show a tightly packed street network extending to the boardwalk, the western reaches are defined by a complex system of waterways including Richardson Channel, Jarvis Sound, and Grassy Sound Channel.

Infrastructure like the RT-47 and W Rio Grande Ave bridge the gap between the mainland and the coastal islands, connecting smaller enclaves like Shawcrest and West Wildwood. Navigational features such as Ottens Harbor and Post Creek Basin highlight the maritime character of the area, while the southern end transitions from Wildwood Gables and Diamond Beach toward the protected reaches of Two Mile Beach.
