For decades, the starburst-shaped neon emblem of the 24th Street Motel served as a beacon to travelers and a familiar landmark to locals near the southern end of North Wildwood's Surf Avenue strip. After nearly a half-century of proud operation, the motel closed its doors for the final time in September of 2005. It was promptly demolished in favor of new condominiums.

Yet another of the smaller motels that disappeared off of the Surf Avenue strip during the "condo boom" years, the Anchorage was known later in its existence as Lisa's Family Motel.
