The class B floor is 500? Sounds like a recipe for some sort of

The airspace below is over open water. It's perfectly reasonable.

Actually, significant parts of the 500' floor are over densely populated
areas of New Jersey. (Wow, what a hairy-assed chunk of airspace.
There's a teeny weeny triangle of 500' floor wedged in between a section
with an 800' floor and the EWR central core. That's gotta be the
smallest separately charted chunk of controlled airspace in the world.)
