NGS Benchmark JU0679

Set into the side of the Mary Ethel Costello school in Gloucester City is NGS Benchmark JU0679. The date stamped into the disc is 1930, which is apparently when the school was built.

NGS Benchmark KV6401-Florence2

In Florence at the Clark T. Carey Memorial Park, also known as Volunteer's Park, at the end of Broad Street by the Delaware River is NGS Benchmark KV6401-Florence2, which was originally installed in 1959. However, the benchmark disk located in the designated spot actually reads Florence 3 with a date of 1991, which indicates the original mark was removed because it was damaged, or more likely had to be re-installed after construction of the memorial park.
