Ocean Grove Jewel: 47 Heck Avenue.

June 30, 2026 by Blogfinger

How cute is this cottage?   Paul Goldfinger photo August, 2018. 

 

KEVIN CHAMBERS  (OG historian):

A moving history:

This cottage was first built on the North End by the OGCMA and used as a tool shed in the early 1870’s.

It was then moved to Main Ave and used as a ticket booth for the Circle Bus Line than ran in O.G. and then moved to the back of the lot facing Heck Ave where it stands today.

It is one of about ten cottages built in the style of a tent that have survived in the Grove.

    So what is different between a cottage and a bungalow ? Sometimes attached sometimes seperate . Utilities or non ?

    But have you seen the “Jewel” on Ocean and Main? There’s now a life size Unicorn blowup on the lawn. Welcome to Disney. When did we lose our charming town? And is this allowed?
