The highest point on the eastern seaboard is here
Mount Mitchill in Atlantic Highlands rises 266 feet above sea level and is the highest point on the Atlantic seaboard south of Maine. The Navesink Highlands headlands it sits on are the reason the borough exists in the shape it does — a town built on a slope rather than a flat shore grid, with steep streets and properties stepped down toward the harbour.
