On February 25, 1850, the village was incorporated. It was reincorporated on February 7, 1876, after being named Joseph Brick, the founder of Bergen Iron Works and a prominent local figure. See more here.

Until the 1950s, Brick Township was a rural-resort community. Due to its affordable housing prices, it has evolved into a bedroom community of New York City, Philadelphia, and Newark.

Places to Visit

Brick Township, tucked away on the New Jersey Shore just 90 minutes south of New York City, has various fun things to do for visitors.

Beaches and water features in Macheri make it perfect for a range of water activities, making it ideal for families. The region is home to three macaw species as well as other birds such as herons and ibis. On the coast, you may go bird-watching while kayaking, and there is also a deep lake nearby where you can fish or trek.

Float therapy at the True Rest Float Spa or SUP Yoga and Meditation at Midstream rentals are wonderful options for those seeking a place to relax and unwind.

Mantoloking Bridge County Park

This is the place to go for spectacular views of the Barnegat Bay and some of New Jersey's finest fishing or crabbing expeditions.

This park is a haven for both crabbers and sightseers. The Park features a new 70-foot long pier, a boardwalk, a picnic area with a sunshade gazebo, and lit walkways.

 The park is accessible 365 days a year for residents, and it's not just worth seeing during the summer season. The tiny Park is on less than two acres and includes numerous leisure activities linked to Barnegat Bay.
