SEA ISLE CITY — Officials here recently accepted a U.S.D.A. check for $30,000, which will be used for the new sign for Fish Alley.

They included Mike Monichetti, Mike’s Seafood and Dock Restaurant; Butch Romano, Marie’s Lobster House Restaurant and Fish Market; Jack Gibson, founder of Gibson Associates; Mayor Leonard Desiderio, and Sea Isle City Historical Society President Mike Stafford.

“Fish Alley” was once widely used by locals to identify a stretch of Sea Isle City’s Park Road, traditional home to commercial fishing businesses. The city wants to erect a sign along the street, an area of commercial fishing industry, seafood restaurants, markets and recreational boating businesses.
