Here's the neon palm tree that's on the Imperial 500 Motel marquee. The rooftop sign for the Imperial 500 is also quite a sight to see and can be viewed from quite a distance away.

Along Ocean Avenue in Wildwood Crest is this gem of a motel. The Waikiki Oceanfront Inn lit up the sky during dusk. In addition, its neon marquee pointed the way in to this treasure of a motel/inn.

Check out this neon shot of the Carousel Motel. The carousel horse on top of the marquee is very detailed and features multiple neon colors. Looking at this sign will make you feel like you're in a circus. Unfortunately, the Carousel is another of the treasures to disappear from the Wildwoods.


Dunes Motel (Demolished)
Wildwood Crest, NJ

The Dunes Motel along Atlantic Avenue features a rather interesting neon marquee that appears like a cloud floating in mid-air. Well, at least the Dunes featured the sign. The Dunes and its marquee were leveled in late 2004.


Royal Hawaiian

A name like the Royal Hawaiian always brings a polynesian, and at times tiki thoughts to mind. The neon alongside the building is a real eye-catcher at this large resort motel.

Cavalier Motel (Demolished)
Wildwood Crest, NJ

The Cavalier features a large neon lit sign atop its roof. This motel has thus far survived the demolition onslaught and hasn't turned into a space for bland condominiums as of yet. Well, the Cavalier is another to have been demolished.
