The fire wiped out 80% of a boardwalk that was just rebuilt this year after being destroyed by Hurricane Sandy.
More than 50 businesses were reduced to rubble.
Kohr's Frozen Custard went up in flames because of some unspecified electrical problem, officials told The Star-Ledger, but high winds drove the fire out of control and caused it to spread to other buildings.
