A carousel’s neon grin once lit the Jersey night, hiding secret histories behind glass and steel. Asbury Park is more than boardwalk and beach—it’s a city of rebellion, reinvention, and underground currents.

This self-guided audio tour peels back the layers, guiding you to the places and stories locals whisper about. Discover schools where a political rivalry rocked the foundation, a nightclub where love and scandal danced together, a lost amusement palace haunted by risk-takers and dreamers.

What dark event forced the doors of Palace Amusements shut overnight? Which forbidden voices echoed behind the walls of Paradise? How did a classroom decision at Asbury Park Public Schools change the course of a city’s fight for equality?

Walk from faded murals to glowing clubs, tracing drama, defiance, and discovery in every street’s turn. See Asbury Park with new eyes—raw, unpredictable, unforgettable.

Hit play and let the electric shadows guide your next adventure.
