Narrative and photographs

This benchmark disk was found as described on the north end of the west abutment of the Assawoman Bay Bridge, approximately 0.5 miles west-northwest of the intersection of Philadelphia Avenue and U.S. Route 50 in downtown Ocean City. The mark was located easily using the historic description, and no changes are necessary. At the site, I recorded coordinates that are approximately 85 feet from the scaled coordinates given on the datasheet. The disk is in good condition and the date and designation are legible.
