Lucy The Elephant

As it turns out, Margate's most popular roadside attraction will be ready in time for Memorial Day Weekend! Lucy The Elephant's restoration didn't come cheap.

Lucy the Elephant is in the midst of a facelift that was supposed to be completed by Memorial Day, but that’s not going to happen.

There are certain Jersey Shore things that attract out-of-towners. Ya know, like Lucy the Elephant, Atlantic City, Morey's Piers. But, lets be honest. We love 'em, too! Here's a list of 38 places at the Jersey Shore that could be considered 'tourist traps' that even the locals can't resist.

Even a national treasure like Lucy The Elephant has fallen victim to America’s supply chain problems, but despite that, the Margate treasure will be accepting visitors.

There's a newly published list of the "Top 25 Roadside Attractions in the U.S." It includes two South Jersey attractions - one in Margate and one in Millville.

Am I coming on a little strong with the headline here?

Margate's largest resident has quite a history. We found some stuff even we didn't know!

A website (that we've never heard of) has listed the "Weirdest Roadside Attraction in Every State", and their pick for New Jersey is not Lucy the Elephant, My Bill, Mighty Joe, the California Raisin, or the Hubcab Tree/Pyramid.

For three nights only, Margate’s own Lucy the Elephant will be opened for guests to spend the night in the historic landmark.

These are the places that have disappointed people the most. Let the arguments begin!

If you love Lucy the Elephant with all your heart and soul, you may want to turn away now.

It takes more than you might think to keep a 138-year-old structure, made of cedar wood covered with tin, looking young.
