Love this one! There was an article in the newspaper over the weekend about these old motels (they called them Do-Wop Motels) that are being destroyed by the dozens because they can't compete with the big chains or the developers who want to put up condos on these prime-property sites. Like the drive-ins that disappeared a decade ago, the old motels will be the next to disappear. Perhaps you should do a book of motel sign photographs before they're all gone! (Someone did a book a few years back of the drive-ins, actually.)
Thanks for the idea. I googled Do-Wop motels because I had never heard of that term and I think I found the article that you were talking about. The article mentioned Wildwood NJ where my mom used to take us on vacation when we were young. I remember details about the motel but can't remember the name of it.
