As of the 2010 United States Census, the city's population was 9,450,〔〔〔 reflecting a decline of 3,144 (-25.0%) from the 12,594 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 1,240 (+10.9%) from the 11,354 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed March 20, 2013.〕 What is now the City of Brigantine has passed through a series of names and re-incorporations since it was first created. The area was originally incorporated as Brigantine Beach Borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on June 14, 1890, from portions of Galloway Township, based on the results of a referendum held on June 3, 1890. On April 23, 1897, the area was reincorporated as the City of Brigantine City. This name lasted until April 9, 1914, when it was renamed the City of East Atlantic City. On March 16, 1924, Brigantine was incorporated as a city, replacing East Atlantic City and incorporating further portions of Galloway Township.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 67. Accessed April 18, 2012.〕 The borough was named for the many shipwrecks in the area, including those of brigantines.〔(History ), Brigantine Beach. Accessed August 27, 2015. "The name 'Brigantine' came from a type of 1600s ship; perhaps one of the first of over three hundred vessels wrecked on the notorious offshore shoals – during a two hundred year period."〕〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed August 27, 2015.〕〔("The History of Brigantine Beach" ), ''South Jersey Magazine''. Accessed August 27, 2015. "Many ships wrecked off the shoals of this island, probably some of them of the 'brigantine' type.... The name 'Brigantine,' then, probably came from this maritime term."〕 ''New Jersey Monthly'' magazine ranked Brigantine as its 36th best place to live in its 2008 rankings of the "Best Places To Live" in New Jersey.〔("Best Places To Live - The Complete Top Towns List 1-100" ), ''New Jersey Monthly'', February 21, 2008. Accessed February 24, 2008.〕 ==Geography== According to the United States Census Bureau, the city had a total area of 10.364 square miles (26.844 km2), including 6.387 square miles (16.543 km2) of land and 3.977 square miles (10.301 km2) of water (38.37%).〔〔 Brigantine is located on Brigantine Island. The only road to and from Brigantine is New Jersey Route 87, locally known as Brigantine Boulevard. The Justice Vincent S. Haneman Memorial Bridge is the only way on and off the island. The original bridge to the island that was constructed in 1924 was destroyed in the Great Atlantic Hurricane of 1944. The current bridge was constructed in 1972.〔Zatzariny, Jr., Tim. ("Development thrusts change upon once-sleepy Brigantine" ), ''Courier-Post'', July 22, 2001. Accessed September 1, 2013. "In 1924, a bridge linking Brigantine and Atlantic City opened, creating a land boom.... In 1944, a hurricane damaged the Brigantine Bridge, the island's only access to the mainland. For 21 months, residents had to be ferried on and off the island during repairs. A new bridge replaced the original in 1972."〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brigantine, New Jersey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
