Jade East Motel
Jade East Motel
510 East 4th Avenue
North Wildwood, NJ 08260
(609) 522-1867
Thematic representations of far away lands and cultures are one of the celebrated focal points of 'Doo Wop.' For whatever reason, traditional Asian themes never took off in popularity as prominently as, say, Polynesian designs on the island did. Whether it's because or in spite of this, the Jade East has always been a standout in its own right. This diminutive classic, though often overlooked, is one of the oldest and most distinct structures in North Wildwood's upper motel district.

Singapore Motel
Singapore Motel
515 E Orchid Rd
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260
(609) 522-6961

One of the Wildwoods' more unique structures, the Singapore is highlighted by its centerpiece structure, which was built to resemble a "pagoda temple." Signage for the motel is provided by an interior lit sign to the south of the motel. An Asian style fence protects the pool from parking. The Singapore was renovated and repainted prior to the 2005 season.

Historic Register: Located in the Doo Wop Historic District.
