    What is this? Located next to Steven's Creek, in the back of the John Estell House remains in Estellville, NJ.

    Ruins at Lake Lenape West, Mays Landing, NJ

    Recently I was biking through this park and noticed an old foundation I'd never noticed before. In the 1980s I found some distinctive "holes" or possibly some kind of old sewage "manholes" in the ground in this area. Today, the park is run by Atlantic County as a campground/recreational area...

    Amatol Raceway and Ammunitions Village/Factory Remains, Hammonton, NJ

    WWII Watch Tower on Old Egg Harbor Road in Mays Landing, NJ

    In the 1980s there was a site on Old Egg Harbor Road which still had the remains of a very tall rusted watchtower and an old building foundation next to it. I've spoken to my neighbor who has lived here since the mid-50s and at best she seems to recall that it was used as an old WWII watchtower...

    Derelict Houses on Indian Cabin Road, Egg Harbor City, NJ

    Besides the usual hype and exaggerated teenage "legends" associated with Indian Cabin Road in Egg Harbor City, does anyone know the specific history of how about 5 to 7 houses came to be "placed" on a relatively small wooded lot on Indian Cabin Road? These houses appear to be randomly "dropped"...
