Township of Ocean
In 1849, the Township of Ocean--then composed geographically of land along the Atlantic from Sandy Hook to Shark River and west to Neptune and Tinton Falls--was officially separated from Shrewsbury Township. Consisting of scattered farms and small villages surrounding occasional inns, mills, and general stores, the newly formed jurisdiction contained what would later become the dynamic shore communities of Long Branch, Asbury Park, Neptune, Deal, Allenhurst, Interlaken, and Loch Arbour. The lands now known as the Township of Ocean were originally developed from wooded countryside in the 1600s into farmlands, but the area has since become home to summer cottages, mansions, and suburban neighborhoods in modern times. As the township prepares to celebrate its 150th anniversary in 1999, it boasts a diverse and vibrant assortment of gracious residential communities and thriving commercial sections. This marvelous new photographic history was compiled to honor the hard-working and dedicated citizens who have lived and labored together over the years in the Township of Ocean.
Asbury Park's Glory Days
Winner of the 2005 New Jersey Author Award for Scholarly Non-Fiction from the New Jersey Studies Academic Alliance Long before Bruce Springsteen picked up a guitar; before Danny DeVito drove a taxi; before Jack Nicholson flew over the cuckoo's nest, Asbury Park was a seashore Shangri-La filled with shimmering odes to civic greatness, world-renowned baby parades, temples of retail, and atmospheric movie palaces. It was a magnet for tourists, a summer vacation mecca-to some degree New Jersey's own Coney Island. In Asbury Park's Glory Days, award-winning author Helen-Chantal Pike chronicles the city's heyday-the ninety-year period between 1890 and 1980. Pike illuminates the historical conditions contributing to the town's cycle of booms and recessions. She investigates the factors that influenced these peaks, such as location, lodging, dining, nightlife, merchandising, and immigration, and how and why millions of people spent their leisure time within this one-square-mile boundary on the northern coast of the state. Pike also includes an epilogue describing recent attempts to resurrect this once-vibrant city.
