New Jersey's Absolute Essentials

This collection spans the historic corridors of the Mid-Atlantic, from Lower Manhattan’s financial landmarks and the poignant National September 11 Memorial to Philadelphia’s colonial heritage in Old City. Coastal highlights include the Victorian charm of Cape May and the iconic boardwalks of Atlantic City and Wildwood. Featured sites include the 1913 neo-Gothic Woolworth Building, the 18th-century Elfreth's Alley, and the remains of the SS Atlantus, a WWI-era concrete ship resting off Cape May Point.
