I'm friends with a Gentleman who is majority of the responsibility of why the right of way still exist and has been demolished completely, that he's working on getting A light rail service type motive power back into OC just like the RiverLine that runs Trenton to Camden. He states that all you have to do is lay it in the road like they did in Camden and use the old 10 st. Station. NJT Still owns the right of way even though the ignorance of people caused them to build close and or plant gardens on right of way, but SOL to them if they do such an operation they'll lose their stupid gardens. They could even incorporate a bath out to the old bridge and build a pier so that the fisherman don't complain.

The portion north of 36th street is mostly part of Haven Avenue now...I'm pretty sure that is owned by the city...
