In 1850, the New Jersey Legislature created Ocean County and Brick
Township, naming it for Joseph W. Brick, the industrious owner of
Bergen Iron Works. At the beginning of the 20th century, Brick
Township was a rural community. Up until the 1920s, postcards of
the township were primarily architectural images. Brick Township
contains updated images of familiar names and places: Emma Havens
Young, for whom an elementary school has been named; the very
popular Red Lion Tavern, later called the Red Lion Inn; the
progression of four bridges crossing Barnegat Bay to the peninsula
area of Brick Township; and Traders Cove Marina as it looked in the
1950s when it was called Pleasure Cove Marina. There are postcards
from summer camps, such as Camp NEJECHO and Metedeconk Summer Camp,
and from summer resorts, such as Breton Woods, Riviera Beach, and
Normandy Beach.
