A longtime fixture on New Jersey Ave. in North Wildwood, A&LP has happily served generations of visitors to the island for over half a century. The oversized rooftop neon signs on the north and south ends of the building are hard to miss when coming from either direction, particularly at night. This institution remains family owned and operated, and is open all year round.
Amid a cluster of older, smaller buildings in North Wildwood's upper motel district, the Acropolis and nearby Regency Towers dominate the beachfront skyline. The sentinel nature of the 1970s-era Acropolis calls to mind the ancient structure for which it was named, which for thousands of years has loomed high above the city of Athens, Greece.

A state-of-the art facility when it debuted in the 1970s, the Kennedy House still stands and operates. It is known today as the Regency Towers Condominiums.
