GAY HISTORY OF ASBURY PARK TROLLEY TOURS
Departure times: 12:00, 1:30, 3:00, 4:30 PM
Guided Tours Depart on the Hour from the steps of the Paramount Theater, Fifth Avenue & The Boardwalk
$10Asbury Park, started in 1871, at its height entertained over 10,000 guests with its 100+ hotels and pristine beaches.
Throughout the many ‘phases’ of Asbury Parks history, the one piece that has remained consistent from the 1940’s, thru the dark days of the late 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, to the re-development of today, has been the presence of a gay community. This tour will bring alive the oft forgotten, yet vibrant, thriving, and sometimes wacky stores of those times.
Hear about Tiny Tim’s Tearoom of the 1930’s, discover where gay WW2 British soldiers who were billeted at the Berkeley Hotel and The New Monterey Hotel went to have a drink and find men of a ‘similar type’. Learn about The M&K, Archies, The Loading Dock, Bond on Bond St., the El Moroccan Room, the very first women’s only bar The Owl and the Pussycat, as well as the gay hotels like The Albion, The Hudson, and The Atlantis.
While straight tourists visited The Colony Baths, there was that ‘other’ Bath House that existed as well. You'll hear how the colorful mix of drag queens, rough trade, transvestites, New York City regulars, and the average ‘Joes’ that made Asbury Park the hot gay beach town.
Narrated by Asbury Park Realtor, Mark McDonald, the tour is a result of a combination of research by Asbury Park historian, Helen-Chantal Pike, as well as the personal stories of several life long gay and lesbian residents and business owners who were an integral part of those times.
These tours always sell out – so get your tickets early!
