Slade Dale Sanctuary
​Living Shoreline Project

Slade Dale Sanctuary is a 12.93 acre preserve located along Beaverdam Creek in Point Pleasant, NJ. Historic aerial imagery shows the shoreline to have eroded an average of approximately 300 feet since 1930, and the current vegetation composition of the site shows evidence of marsh retreat. To halt this erosion and regain marsh habitat, this project involves the construction of a branchbox breakwater and several Christmas tree vanes, as well as the planting of native species.
​Project Partners
The Slade Dale marsh restoration project is generously supported by US Fish & Wildlife Service, The Nature Conservancy, Borough of Point Pleasant, Point Pleasant Rotary Club, Corporate Wetlands Restoration Partnership, Lacey Township, and Bill Borowsky owner of Nature’s Reward Farm Market.
