My father was in Lakehurst when the Hindenburg blew up. Born and raised in Camden and he took a ride with a few friends to see it.

Flying at an altitude of only 500 feet. Must have looked huge flying across the city.

There's an interesting shot around the 11:05 mark in the NOVA Hindenburg episode, where it's just about over the Newark Ironbound. You can clearly see the Pulaski skyway, Point-No-Point Bridge and the neighboring generating station. In the distance, you can also make out the DB and Portal bridges.
