I went to the Strand today to ask if the had a book about the history of Washington Square Park and they said they didn’t have any. I repeat. The STRAND didn’t have any books about WASHINGTON SQUARE PARK.

Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd? Yup! It's called the Jergins Tunnel and it opened in 1928 and closed to the public in 1967. The tunnel ran under Ocean Blvd. and provided access to the Pike and beach, via the Jergins Trust building at 100 E. Ocean Boulevard.
