English: Christian Admiral Hotel, 1401 Beach Avenue, Cape May, Cape May, NJ, aka Cape May Hotel
HABS NJ,5-CAPMA,70- Survey number HABS NJ-1228 Building/structure dates: 1906 initial construction Building/structure dates: 1995 demolished National Register of Historic Places NRIS Number: 70000383 Significance: The Cape May Hotel was constructed in 1908 as the anchor for an ambitious real estate venture to create a new town in East Cape May to replace the aging center. The development was designed to rejuvenate the city's flagging reputation (in decline since the 1880s and 90s) and stimulate the economy still suffering the effects of the depression of 1894. With 350 guestrooms, the hotel was the largest in Cape May and the finest on the Jersey shore. It boasted central heating, electric lighting throughout and completely fireproof construction-- purportedly the first such hotel in the world. - Historic American Buildings Survey (Library of Congress) Rev. Carl McIntire's organization purchased the historic Admiral Hotel in 1962, and founded the Christian Admiral Bible Conference and Freedom Center. The name of the hotel was changed to "Christian Admiral". |
