During the late 1800s, the many farms were subdivided by resort developers, church groups and builders who created the Victorian core of the borough, attracting thousands of visitors and year-round residents. In 1879, a surveyor was engaged to lay roads and lots for a permanent community. The Atlantic Highlands Association was formed by prominent members of the [[Methodist#Methodism in the United States|Methodist Church]].

During this period of development a fire department was organized. A number of churches saw their beginning in the 1880s: the Central Baptist, First Presbyterian, [[Saint Agnes Catholic Church (Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey)|Saint Agnes Roman Catholic]], First Methodist, and Saint Paul Baptist Church. Atlantic Highlands became a haven for [[rum-running|bootleggers]] during [[Prohibition]].<ref name=KateRounds/> Steamer service was the most important transport during the formation of the borough, and continued through the 1940s. In the 1890s, rail service came to Atlantic Highlands. This opened up Highlands and points south to vacationers. The 1920s saw 26 passenger trains daily passing through the Borough. The [[Central Railroad of New Jersey]] built a major pier at the end of First Avenue. Several trains at a time could continue to the end of the pier to offload [[steamboat]] passengers. From the 1910s through the 1940s, the steamers ''Sandy Hook'' and the ''Monmouth'' navigated the waters bringing businessmen and vacationers to Atlantic Highlands. The Manhattan skyline can be seen from the borough's ridges and its shoreline. Pleasure, fishing and commuter boats sail from its harbor.
