It looks like the old Texaco gas station is being torn down. According to https://watchthetramcarplease.com/make-room-for-popeyes-louisiana-kitchen-in-wildwood-nj/, a new Popeye's should be going before the planning board and could be across from the McDonald's soon.

There has been a lot of activity with new planned hotels and expansions. To add to the list, the Oceanic is going to be renovating and expanding too. Can't wait to see what the upgraded hotel looks like. Here is an excerpt from their planning board notice: CITY OF WILDWOOD PLANNING/ZONING BOARD NOTICE OF APPLICATION PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that CATDADDIES II, LLC (the "Applicant") has applied to the Planning/Zoning Board of the City of Wildwood, Cape May County, NJ seeking Preliminary and Final Site Plan Approval and Variance Relief respecting the properties that it owns located at 4600 Ocean Avenue, Wildwood, NJ (Block 74 Lot 15 the "Oceanic Hotel") and 233 E.

some will say more options for food, others will say more unhealthy food. I'm in the latter group. but if it means giving a few teens a job for the summer (and year round) , then that's good.
Aesthetically, it will be an improvement, and that's a good thing.
good food or bad food ,does not matter. An old gas station comes down and a thriving business will go in its place, Total good thing.
