Fenwick Island: Building 464
Among the places of Maryland’s Atlantic coast, Ocean City stands out for its long, built-up barrier-island shoreline between the Atlantic Ocean and Isle of Wight Bay. Coastal Highway is the main north–south commercial spine here, lined with hotels, condominium towers, shops and residential streets that run toward the bay. Ocean City developed from a small fishing settlement into a major Mid-Atlantic seaside resort after a hurricane cut an inlet through the barrier island in 1933. Its 2.5-mile Boardwalk, first laid out in 1902, remains the older resort core at the southern end, while ocean beach and bay waters define the city’s distinctive linear form.

Fenwick Island occupies a narrow barrier-island strip between the Atlantic Ocean and Little Assawoman Bay on Delaware’s southern coast. The town sits beside the Maryland line, where the Fenwick Island Lighthouse, built in 1858, has long marked this low-lying stretch of shore. Beaches face open Atlantic surf, while the bay side is calmer and tied to the tidal waters behind the island. Fenwick Island State Park extends north of town, preserving dunes and a broad public shoreline. Despite its compact footprint, Fenwick Island follows the seasonal rhythm of a Mid-Atlantic resort community, with fishing, water sports and beachgoing central to local life.

Built around settlements and commerce on the Delaware River, Delaware grew into a compact Mid-Atlantic state. Its northern edge meets the river and Delaware Bay, while the south, including Sussex County near these coordinates, opens toward Atlantic beaches, salt marshes and low-lying farmland. Dover is the state capital; Wilmington, on the Christina River, is Delaware’s largest city and a long-standing industrial centre. Delaware was the first state to ratify the U.S. Constitution, on 7 December 1787, a distinction reflected in its “First State” nickname. Cape Henlopen, Lewes and Rehoboth Beach underline the importance of the coast to local life.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
