Former Carlton Theatre which was opened by Walter Reade in 1926, featuring both movies and vaudeville. After a successful multi-decade run, the theatre closed in 1970.

Three years later, it was purchased by the Monmouth County Arts Council and renamed the Monmouth Arts Center. It was later renamed once again, as the Count Basie Theatre, after the famed Red Bank native and now features live dramatic and musical performances.
