Sandy Hook is a barrier spit in Middletown Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. The barrier spit, approximately 6 miles in length and varying from 0.1 to 1.0 mile wide, is located at the north end of the Jersey Shore. It encloses the southern entrance of Lower New York Bay south of New York City, protecting it from the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The Dutch called the area "Sant Hoek", with the English "Hook" deriving from the Dutch "Hoek", meaning "spit of land".
Fort Hancock at Sandy Hook—part of Gateway National Recreation Area—provided coastal defense for New York Harbor from 1895 until 1974. During the height of the Cold War, the fort housed Nike missiles prepared to intercept warplanes threatening New York City. Just a quick trip from Manhattan by ferry, this National Historic Landmark district at Sandy Hook is open for the public to explore.
Today, you can take a break from the beach and take a tour of Battery Potter, Battery Gunnison and the Sandy Hook Lighthouse.
The Sandy Hook Lighthouse is the nation's oldest continuously operated lighthouse. Due to its strategic location, it was defended by British loyalists to ensure the safe passage of British ships into New York City during the American Revolution. Fully restored, it has been guiding ships into New York Harbor since 1764.
Designed to be invisible from the sea, the first of the many concrete gun batteries at Fort Hancock was constructed as early as 1890.
They have housed a wide range of artillery over the years. The first guns had only the limited range of 7 miles, but by 1919 artillery range increased to 20 miles. The Mortar Battery included an extensive tunnel system meant for storage of guns and ammunition. During World War II, the tunnels were converted into a top secret command center for defense of New York City. Battery Potter, one of the oldest gun batteries, is open to the public via ranger-led tours.
Other buildings still on view today include a renovated chapel, homes for the enlisted men and officers, a YMCA building, and the former post movie house which is now used for music and live theater.
While not all are open to the public, these historic structures offer a dramatic foil to the beaches and surf available at Sandy Hook.
Sandy Hook is part of a National Park, called the Gateway National Recreation Area. It's federal land and it has beaches and parks there. It's not a town.
There are place in Fort Hancock at Gateway Natl Area that are not open to the public. Where did they store the missiles during the cold war? It is linked in my comment above.
Whatever happened with this, I had to pull out due to heavy research with argosciv. Notice my downvoats. And also on others as well. There could be something to this whole thing. I am worried. If there are kids then they are in danger. Unless they have already been warned. Scary. You are right it is a perfect hiding place.
I am surprised. You are someone I trust and saw that someone else said the same. How can this be? Sacre Bleu! The streets and park all all in Scandinavian. Edit: That makes it even more bazaar.
I haven't checked for sure, but what I think happened is the way you put the coordinates in the search engine. For N (north) and E (east) , you don't have to do anything because they are positive numbers on the grid. But if a coordinate is a S (south) or W (west), i.e., the cooridnates are to the left or below the 0-0 axis, then you need to use a negative sign. Plus, some of those search sites were just crappy to use.
I am certainly sure it should be checked out. I hope someone reports. Reddit seems to be treating it like it is a larper or a joke. Until it is too late. For safe being a look in is needed.
Yeah, although to be fair at the new pizzagate subreddit they couldn't even say who owns the property even if they wanted to. The doxing rules would get them purged from Reddit again.
Well it is right near Volkstuinpark which looks like it is a Tennis Club. How convenient. I suggest this should go to 4chan so it can be seen in Amsterdam. It will get more exposure. Someone, Anyone on here from Amsterdam. This should maybe be reported. They need to ask the person that posted it if they reported it and why not. I remember a while back on reddit there was report of a green painted day care center that was highly suspicious as well. Nothing ever done.
It's in Amsterdam apparently. Anyone know Zesde Vogelstraat? Might need some digging, but stay safe - I'm not sure how much the authorities would do about it but maybe local media?
I see that it's near somewhere called Ijplein en Vogelbuurt

Amsterdam is a trafficking hotspot. Crime gangs own many of the buildings in the red light district and the brothels in those buildings.
