A tour for those who want to know, “How’d they DO that?” Cape May has one of the largest concentrations of 19th century wood frame structures (over 600) in the United States. Look at them from a builder’s perspective (remembering they did all this without nailguns and a saw was their idea of a cordless tool). Learn how things really came together and worked on this one-hour guided trolley tour.

Dr. Physick’s Neighborhood WALKING TOUR

Mondays (through Aug. 25): 10:30am

Step back in time as you walk along Cape May’s historic Washington Street that borders the home of Dr. Emlen Physick, Cape May’s wealthiest yearround citizen. View homes that span the years from the 1600s though the 21st century and hear about the residents and their professions. Along the way, see if you can find the answer to one of Cape May’s greatest mysteries – why Dr. Physick built his mansion in this “unfashionable” part of Cape May. Starts at the Physick Estate, 1048 Washington St.

$10 adults, $7 children (ages 3-12)

The fires that shaped Cape May From the beginning, fire has shaped Cape May more than any other force, natural or manmade. Even today, fire continues to be the bane of Cape May, a National Historic Landmark filled with hundreds of restored Victorian buildings. Exhibit curator Ben Miller, author of Exit Zero’s best-selling book, The First Resort, takes visitors on a journey through Cape May’s fiery past in this must-see exhibit that includes an authentic 1924 Model T fire truck.
