Why Should I Use Native Plants in my Landscaping?Native plants provide multiple benefits to people and wildlife, while contributing greatly to healthy soil and water. Native plants: • Thrive in our local climate and soil • Have natural defenses to plant diseases, harmful insects, and other pests • Require less water and fertilizer than non-natives • Require fewer to no pesticides • Keep our water cleaner by decreasing the quantity of pollutants that rainwater runoff can carry into our waterways and the Barnegat Bay • Provide shelter and food for wildlife, and support pollinators • Promote biodiversity & stewardship of our natural heritage • Have been shown to save money in many different ways.A Healthier Yard Means a Healthier Environment and a Healthier Barnegat Bay.

The History of MantolokingAccording to Becker’s Indian Place Names in New Jersey, the name Mantoloking translates to “frog ground” with a secondary meaning of “sand place.” Mantoloking was part of Brick Township until April 10, 1911 when the Borough of Mantoloking was incorporated. Shortly after in 1912, electricity came to town.An inlet, called Herring Inlet flowed just south of Channel Lane up until 1740 when it became unnavigable due to a storm and was completely closed by the first decade of the 1800s. The North and South Lagoons were dug in this area in 1928.

In 1881, the Philadelphia and Long Branch Railroad Company, a division of the Pennsylvania Railroad, completed a line from Seaside Park through Mantoloking up the coast to connect with the southern terminus of the New York and Long Branch Railroad. The Mantoloking train station, located on Downer Avenue across from the current firehouse, was built in 1883. As of 1911, the weekday schedule included eight southbound and nine northbound trains. After 65 years of Mantoloking train service, the last northbound train left the station in September 1949. The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders adopted a resolution in 1883 for Captain John Arnold to build a bridge across Barnegat Bay for $4,000. This swing draw bridge was completed to Old Bridge Street in 1884. The second bridge across Barnegat Bay was completed in 1938 for $242,564 and landed at the foot of Herbert Street. The third bridge was completed in 2006 for $22M, also landing at the foot of Herbert Street, slightly to the north of the 1938 bridge. One hundred fifty-two feet of this bridge still remain as a fishing pier on the Brick side. The Mantoloking Golf Club was formed in 1897. Using a red ball so that it was visible in the sand, the course ran from the sand dunes between Herbert Street and Downer Avenue across the railroad tracks to Barnegat Bay. Later the name was changed to the Mantoloking Golf and Yacht Club and then to the Mantoloking Yacht Club in 1907. The Albertson Hotel, built on the ocean front just north of Albertson Street, was later called the Breakers Hotel. The boardwalk extended from this

hotel northward to Downer Avenue after which it became a brick walk up until Herbert Street. High seas in 1896 and then again in 1902, destroyed the boardwalk. After the 1902 storm, it was rebuilt over a bulkhead until another storm in 1914 demolished it for good. The original Borough Hall was built in 1928, but was torn down in 2013 after significant damage due to Superstorm Sandy. The new Borough Hall was completed and occupied in 2019. The Mantoloking Fire Company was founded in 1930 and continues as an active volunteer organization.References: Becker, Donald Wm. Indian Place Names in New Jersey.
