Long-Branch is located in Monmouth County along New Jersey's Atlantic shore. Years ago, Long Branch was a major tourist resort destination, along with the more famous Asbury Park. It's home to the 33-acre Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park, named for the U.S. Presidents who once frequented this "fashionable resort town," - Ulysses S. Grant, Chester A. Arthur, Rutherford B. Hayes, Benjamin Harrison, William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson and James Garfield. The park offers swimming and sunning, boating, fishing and picnicking. As of 2004, significant efforts were taken to revitalize the prominent and historically important area known as the West End district. Contradictory to its name, this area of the city occupies the entire south central region of the city, spanning from the western city limit to the beach on the east. West End borders with Elberon on the south, and North Long Branch on the north. Revitalization has also expanded to include other areas of the Long Branch waterfront, offering beachfront condos, high rise hotels and entertainment complexes. The St. James Episcopal Church, built in 1879, is where the seven Presidents worshipped and is now known as the "Church of the Presidents." It contains a museum run by the Long Branch Historical Society and is open only by appointment. A short drive north of Long Branch takes you to the Sandy Hook National Seashore and Lighthouse, the oldest operational lighthouse in the country.
