The Hotel Nassau and boardwalk (concrete in this photo)
The Boardwalk looking East from Riverside Blvd. The buildings are the Dauville, the Trouville Resturant and the Long Beach Baths. Once again, the boardwalk is concrete here.
The Dauville Baths, in the Fuller Block, between Riverside and Long Beach Blvd. The building on the far left would have been the Riviera Baths.
The Queens Water Hotel. Believed to be the last stop on the train before Long Beach. This may have become the Bay View Hotel, it is unknown for sure. The bay has not been filled in here. These structures may have been moved to the island, or the dredge may have filled in behind them... You are looking toward Long Beach, the line of cottages belonging to the Long Beach Hotel are faintly visible on the left in the background.
