In 1822 famed marine engine manufacturer James P. Allaire purchased a tract of land in southern Monmouth County, New Jersey as a source of raw materials for his thriving New York based business. Then called the Howell Works Company, that property is known today as The Historic Village at Allaire, a living history museum dedicated to the life and times of James Allaire and the preservation of his memory. Visitors to The Historic Village at Allaire, which is listed on both the State and National Register of Historic Places, will step back in time and experience life in a 19th Century bog iron producing community.
