dc.descriptionThe station and the community have shared a lifelong maritime heritage. Historic records indicate that even before the borough was incorporated in 1887, a station was located at this site in 1856 to serve as a first responder for those in trouble in the treacherous waters along the state�s oceanfront. (The present station had replaced the 1856 and 1871 former wooden structures that were either destroyed during a storm or inadequate for the service.) Many of the streets in Manasquan are named after local sea captains. Families in town volunteered their homes and hospitality to the Coast Guard communication recruits while they were trained at this station. Indeed, the town, the community, the people, and the station share an incredible historical value for New Jersey and the nation�s East Coast development. Today the station is an educational maritime museum so that visitors can learn and enjoy the significance of this life saving facility;. It is also a place for local organizations to convene; a meeting place for local artists, authors and discussion groups; for the Coast Guard Auxiliary to conduct boat safety instruction; and other uses that are consistent with the historic nature of this facility.
