1944 Map of Wildwood

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Wildwood and its neighboring beach communities occupy the narrow barrier islands of Five Mile Beach and Two Mile Beach during the mid-1940s. The urban grid of North Wildwood, Wildwood, and Wildwood Crest is shown in meticulous detail, contrasting sharply with the marshy, creek-carved interior of Taylor Sound and Jarvis Sound. The presence of the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines reaching across the back bays via the West Wildwood drawbridge highlights the era's reliance on rail for coastal access.
