Belmar Fishing Club, Ocean Avenue & First Street, on boardwalk, Belmar, Monmouth County, NJ
Summary
Significance: The Belmar Fishing Club building is typical of the recreational club house and/or public structures erected in the resort communities of New Jersey's coastal region during the early 20th century. Its Spanish Mission style was welcomed by the Belmar community as appropriate seashore architecture in 1929-30. The presences of such clubhouses also reflect nearly 2 centuries of sport and leisure activity along the coast.
