Marking the border of Asbury Park and Ocean Grove is the Casino Arcade. As it is before my time in New Jersey, I cannot vouch for anything I have read, but the casino in the name referred to games.

Palace Amusements was a historical indoor amusement park in Asbury Park, New Jersey. The park was built in 1888 and expanded several times over its history, but after a worsening economic situation in both Asbury and the country in the mid-1980s, the park closed in 1988.

Several efforts were made to save the structure, including its hand-carved carousel, murals and decorations, but in 2004, after an independent structural inspection, the building was deemed unsafe (and already damaged in several areas) and was ordered demolished. A local grassroots organization was able to save several pieces from the building, including the famed Tillie mural.

In popular culture[edit]
