A BAD FIRE SEVERELY DAMAGED A STONE HARBOR HOME in the 200-block of 118th Street last week.  Stone Harbor Fire Department responded along with mutual aid from several area departments and brought the blaze under control.  Damage was sustained to the exterior of an adjacent house due to radiant heat.


This Stone Harbor home suffered heavy fire damage last week.  The home to the right suffered exterior damage.

HOW DID A NEW YORK FERRY BOAT WIND UP IN WILDWOOD…THEN CAPE MAY?  Wildwood Video Archives presents the fascinating tale of how a New York Central Railroad ferry boat, which plied the waters of the Hudson River for decades, later wound up becoming a tourist attraction in Wildwood, before winding up at the bottom of Cape May Harbor with a restaurant built atop it.  Enjoy the fun, seven-minute story here: https://youtu.be/cg2tkm71hYs
