Seaside Boardwalk Fire

A South Toms River company is already working to clear the debris from last month's Seaside Boardwalk fire.

The two towns affected by a massive fire that destroyed parts of their boardwalks and dozens of businesses last month have jointly hired a contractor to do demolition and cleanup work.

Almost a month after a massive fire destroyed part of the Seaside Boardwalk, Seaside Park and Seaside Heights agree on a contract with a Toms River paving company to clean up the war zone like area.

Demolition of the four-block stretch of boardwalk in Seaside Park and Seaside Park charred by fire could begin next week.

People on the boardwalk in Seaside Park who were the first to see the flames two weeks ago tried to put out the fire themselves.

The investigation into this month's Seaside boardwalk fire continues, and many questions remain unanswered. On tonight's Ask the Governor, Chris Christie had more details on the fire – explaining in part why it's so difficult to get answers.

Over 50 businesses remain charred to bits after this month's fire on the Seaside Boardwalk, however, more questions remain about the circumstances which caused the fire.

Last Thursday's boardwalk fire in Seaside destroyed over 50 business and dealt millions of dollars in damage, but it could have been prevented with the addition of simple sprinkler systems, says a fire prevention expert.

It's been one week now since the horrible fire in Seaside Park.  The Seaside Park boardwalk destroyed Funtown Pier and the beloved carousel.

After faulty wiring was blamed for the tragic fire on the Seaside Boardwalk, other shore towns are making sure their promenades are up to snuff.
