What’s New on the Boardwalk?

Some familiar plush faces admist a sea of change in Ocean City and Wildwood.

By Collin Hall

If you ask us – and good thing this is our site – Wildwood and Ocean City have the two best boardwalks in New Jersey. They’re two sides of a mid-century fever dream. Take a stroll down either boardwalk (it’s healthy!) and you might believe in nuclear optimism again. But the boardwalks aren’t so steeped in nostalgia that they always stay the same. This past off-season brought more changes than any in recent memory. There’s a whole lot to unpack, from massive construction projects to funny fads. Try to keep up!
