Probe a Landmark's Mysterious Past at the Ocean County Library Tuckerton Branch

originally published: 08/21/2024

Probe a Landmark

 (TUCKERTON, NJ) -- A radio tower in Tuckerton was among the world’s tallest structures when it was built in 1912. It soon became a lightning rod of international intrigue. Discover its hidden history during "WSC Calling: The Tuckerton Wireless Tower" at the Ocean County Library Tuckerton Branch on Monday, September 16, 2024. The event begins at 7:00pm.

Southern Regional High School Social Studies teacher Jeffrey Brown will take you through its controversial lifetime. Constructed by a German concern for contact with a corresponding tower in Germany and with Atlantic marine traffic, it bore no scrutiny until World War I. Suspicions of espionage prompted its takeover by the U.S. government.
