Tinton Falls is a borough in Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. Located within the heart of the Jersey Shore region, the borough is a commercial hub of Central Jersey (it is the site of the Jersey Shore Premium Outlets and different corporate headquarters) and is an established bedroom suburb of New York City, in the New York metropolitan area.[18] As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 19,181,[8][9] an increase of 1,289 (+7.2%) from the 2010 census count of 17,892,[19][20] which in turn reflected an increase of 2,839 (+18.9%) from the 15,053 counted in the 2000 census.[21]

The borough was formed as New Shrewsbury by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on August 15, 1950, based on the results of a referendum held on July 18, 1950, after breaking away from Shrewsbury Township.[22] It was renamed "Tinton Falls" in 1975, to avoid postal errors.[23] The name came from Lewis Morris's plantation, Tinton Manor (which employed free white workers and slaves)[24][25] as it featured a gristmill, making it one of New Jersey's earliest bustling mill towns. The borough is home to the highest waterfall on New Jersey's coastal plain, from which the aforementioned mill generated power.

## History

[edit]

The area that is now known as Tinton Falls was originally settled by Europeans in the late 1600s, probably beginning with the initial land purchases from the Lenni Lenape Native Americans in 1664.[26] Water power and iron ore were likely the incentives that encouraged settlement: shortly after [the land was purchased], a man by the name of James Grover had an ironworks built along the river. Grover was likely the founder of the community, which, in the 1600s, was named "New Shrewsbury".[26] At this time, the waterfall was known to be about 30 feet (9.1 m) high;[27][28] erosion and the destruction of the dam near the ironworks have led to its diminishment.

### The ironworks

[edit]

Grover's ironworks was the central fixture of the community, and it was one of the oldest built in the country, predated only by buildings in Jamestown and Massachusetts.[26] In 1675, a half-interest in the ironworks company was purchased by Colonel Lewis Morris, [who obtained a title granting him 3,540 acres (14.3 km2) along the Shrewsbury River]. Morris also obtained land owned by Bartholomew Applegate, who had built a corn mill on the other side of the river. Morris, who procured the land for iron mining, named his holdings "Tintern Manor," after his family lands in Monmouthshire, Great Britain.[29][30][31] Tintern Abbey, located in Monmouthshire, Wales, is often accepted as the namesake of Tinton Falls.[27][28]

Tintern Abbey in Monmouthshire, Wales, is often accepted as the namesake of Tinton Falls.

In 1691, Colonel Morris died, leaving the ironworks and Tinton Manor (a corruption of "Tintern Manor") to his nephew of the same name. By 1714, the ironworks had become less profitable, but mention of a Tinton Falls ironworks can be found as late as 1844.[29] Morris brought in dozens of African slaves to mine the ore resulting in the nickname the "Iron Plantation", with the highest number of slaves being in Tinton Falls at that time in the colony of New Jersey, though in the mid-18th century it had the largest number of emancipated slaves in the 13 colonies, as residents followed the preaching of abolitionist John Woolman.[24]

### Separation from Shrewsbury Township

[edit]

In 1693, Tinton Manor and the surrounding lands were defined as part of Shrewsbury Township. At this time, Shrewsbury included all of the land in eastern Monmouth County, but lost land due to the creation of a large number of new municipalities over the years, including the borough of Shrewsbury in 1926. In July 1950, Tinton Falls and Wayside left Shrewsbury Township, renaming themselves the Borough of New Shrewsbury. To avoid postal confusion and mix-ups with the surrounding borough and township of Shrewsbury, the residents of New Shrewsbury voted to rename the community as "The Borough of Tinton Falls" in 1975.[32][33]

## Geography

[edit]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 15.60 square miles (40.41 km2), including 15.48 square miles (40.08 km2) of land and 0.13 square miles (0.33 km2) of water (0.83%).[1][2]

Unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the borough include Wayside.[34] Green Grove, Hockhockson, Macedonia, Pine Brook, Reevytown, West Shrewsbury and Wileys Corner are other unincorporated communities located partly or completely within the borough.[citation needed]

The borough borders the Monmouth County municipalities of Colts Neck Township, Eatontown, Middletown Township, Neptune Township, Ocean Township, Red Bank, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury Township and Wall Township.[35][36][37]

## Government

[edit]

### Local government

[edit]

The Borough of Tinton Falls operates under the Faulkner Act, formally known as the Optional Municipal Charter Law, using the Mayor-Council form of municipal government (Plan 6), implemented by direct petition as of July 1, 1985.[51] The borough is one of 71 municipalities (of the 564) statewide governed under this form.[52] The governing body is comprised of the mayor and the borough council. The mayor is the chief executive officer of the borough and is directly elected for a four-year term of office. The borough council, which is the legislative body, includes five members elected at-large on a non-partisan basis for four-year terms on a staggered basis, with either two or three seats up for election every other year as part of the November general election, with the mayoral seat up for vote at the same time that two council seats are being chosen by voters. A business administrator reports to, and may act on behalf of the mayor, in the mayor's absence.[5][53][54][55] The Borough Council voted in May 2010 to shift its elections from May to the November general election, as part of an effort to increase participation of voters and to cut costs associated with the May elections, with savings estimated at nearly $100,000 during the first decade after the change was implemented in the November 2011 vote.[56]

As of February 2025[update], the mayor of Tinton Falls is vacant following the death of Vito Perillo, whose term of office would have ended December 31, 2025.[57] Members of the Borough Council are Council President Risa Clay (2027), Deputy Council President Lawrence A. Dobrin (2025), Greg Alessi (2025, appointed to serve an unexpired term), Tracy A. Buckley (2027) and Michael J. Nesci (2027).[58][59][60][61]

In December 2024, the borough council appointed Greg Alessi to fill the seat expiring in December 2025 that became vacant following the death of John A. Manginelli the previous month.[62]

Perillo, a World War II veteran and former engineer who won the race in 2017 by a 2,600–2,300 margin in his first run for elected office at 93 years old, ran on a platform of lowering taxes and improving transparency.[63][64] In November 2021, Perillo, at 97 years old, was elected for a second four-year term, giving him the nickname "America's Oldest Mayor."[65][66] He turned 100 on September 22, 2024, but rarely attended council meetings and was often represented by a proxy.[67] In December 2024, Perillo announced that he would not run for a third term.[68] Perillo died on February 22, 2025.[69][70]

And the sparsely populated breakaway borough adopted the name New Shrewsbury, which it changed to Tinton Falls in 1975 to eliminate postal confusion.... Slavery: The Tinton Iron Works, started in 1674, was nicknamed 'the Iron Plantation' because it owned 60 or more black slaves.... According to a local history, the congregants took Woolman's message to heart.
