See the fascinating 100-year evolution of Seaside Park from a seasonal summer resort to a year-round community. Seaside Park, located on the Barnegat Barrier Island in Ocean County, New Jersey, was incorporated in 1898. Experience the rich history of Seaside Park through the enchanting images within this important new pictorial history to take you back in time, to the Seaside Park of long ago. Many of Seaside Park's over 200 images have never before been seen by the public. Stroll by the grand hotels representative of the late gilded age, once the main attraction for vacationers from Philadelphia and New York. Ride the long-forgotten Pennsylvania Railroad, which carried passengers and freight into Seaside Park from 1881 until the end of World War II. Watch organizations central to the community, such as the Seaside Park Yacht Club, the Seaside Park Volunteer Fire Company, the First Aid Squad, and public school students and teachers, pose for the long exposures required by early cameras.
