Rickshaw Inn

Rickshaw Inn

The Rickshaw Inn was a 180 room hotel with a legendary gold-plated roof, which was situated on Route 70 opposite Garden State Park and next door to the Latin Casino.

The celebrities & orchestra players performing at "The Latin" often drank in the lobby bar long past the official 2:00AM "last call" mandated by the NJ ABC; but this was winked at by local officials.

Also, local developer Frank Adamucci was shot in the lobby of the hotel he built in a mob "hit" in the early 1960s. ("More to come in the next several weeks as local microfilm archives at The Cherry Hill Library are searched").

After the hotel closed, the building was converted into an old age home. In 2002 it was demolished; and in 2006, Cherry Hill Mercedes-Benz moved to the site.

This illustrious hotel was a central part of the history of Garden State Park, the Latin Casino, and Golden Triangle, New Jersey.
