Ocean Grove is designated as a National Historic District and claims the largest aggregate of Victoriana in the Country. It is a fine example of a 19th century planned urban community. The town was laid out so that the buildings nearest the ocean were built farther back from the street. This created a "funnel" to capture sea breezes and channel them westward. This clever plan also allowed most porches along the street to enjoy an ocean view. Virtually all the historic buildings were built prior to the turn of the century. Many structures are still in use and can be seen by visitors. |
