Synopsis

Keyport documents the early businesses and architecture of this town, chronicling its history from 1860 through the 1970s.

During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the Keyport neighborhoods of Browns Point, Lockport, and Mechanicsville had distinct commercial and industrial districts that have all but disappeared today. Timothy E. Regan's new book on Keyport offers a glimpse into the lives of these early businesses and the citizens who created them, along with a look at the remarkable architecture of this bayside town. This fascinating overview of life in Keyport from 1860 through the 1970s also includes an in-depth look at the men and machines of the Keyport Fire Department, one of the oldest and proudest fire departments in New Jersey. Dedicated civil servants like the firemen have worked together with skilled tradespeople and entrepreneurs over the years to make Keyport a wonderfully dynamic and vibrant place to live, and Mr. Regan's book honors the commitment and the memory of these people.
