"During its heyday in the 19th century, Long Branch was a resort town where some of the top performers gathered to entertain well-heeled visitors. It was also visited by seven U.S. presidents. The Church of the Presidents, on 1260 Ocean Avenue, was renamed to commemorate that the visiting presidents worshiped there. In the 1920s, Long Branch began to decline as a popular summer destination, and by the 1950s, it became just another town along the Jersey shore. With the completion of Pier Village in 2005, a Victorian-style mixed-use complex, Long Branch has enjoyed a rebirth as an upscale destination. In addition to beachside rentals, resorts and shopping, the Village offers an arcade, a carousel, and a spa."
