The motel benefited from a development boom in the Wildwoods in the 1950s, when the Garden State Parkway became a popular way to reach Shore points, said Taylor Henry, president of the Wildwood Historical Society.

As demand for overnight stays grew, motel development boomed, she said. They became popular for accommodating tourists with cars.

“With every big change in transportation comes big changes in development,” Henry said.
