Bayside State Prison (BSP) is a state prison for men located in Leesburg, Maurice River Township, New Jersey. The prison was originally the Leesburg State Prison. In 1988, the prison was renamed to "Bayside State Prison". Some Leesburg residents stated dissatisfaction with the renaming since it was the only widely known aspect of the Leesburg community. Launched in 1977, the prison is one of eight New Jersey correctional institutions which participate in the AgriIndustires program.
