Explore Brick, New Jersey, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Brick, New Jersey. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of New Jersey or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Brick.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Brick occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the Cedar Bridge Branch, which cuts through the terrain and shapes the flow of the local environment. It lies 4.1 miles west-southwest of Point Pleasant, NJ (from Point Pleasant, NJ: bearing 248°T), and is situated 4.8 miles east-southeast of Lakewood. The land here maintains a steady, suburban character, offering a transition between the dense inland reaches and the expansive Atlantic Ocean, which sits only five miles away. On clear days, the atmosphere carries a distinct salt-tinged quality, a reminder of the proximity to the coast that influences the morning mist and the cooling evening air. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Mount Pleasant Hills provide a faint, undulating boundary against the horizon, while the local topography remains largely level, punctuated by the serene waters of Forge Pond.
Brick traces its origins back to the mid-nineteenth century, emerging from a collection of smaller settlements that gradually coalesced into a unified municipality. The early development of Brick was deeply tied to the rhythms of the surrounding waterways and the movement of goods through the region, as settlers recognized the utility of the land for agriculture and small-scale maritime commerce. Over the decades, the character of the settlement shifted from its agrarian roots, mirroring the broader industrial and residential expansion that defined the surrounding corridor. The legacy of these early inhabitants remains visible in the street names and the persistent, grounded spirit that continues to influence how Brick manages its growth and preservation.

Daily life is supported by an array of essential services and commercial hubs that keep the local economy functional and self-reliant. The presence of Forge Pond Park and Golf Course serves as a vital piece of the town's infrastructure, offering residents a dedicated space for recreation that anchors the local landscape and encourages a communal pace of life.
Cultural life in Brick revolves around the shared experiences of its residents, who often gather for seasonal festivals and community events that celebrate the unique identity of the region. While the town does not house professional sports stadiums, the enthusiasm for regional athletics remains high, with many locals following the collegiate teams from nearby institutions.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
