The future is bright - stay tuned!
welcome-to-doowopolis-neon

The future is always brighter when you're free to imagine it...
(and invited to help build it!)

Build the Future

It starts with a dream - but not just one. There's a big, bright future ahead, but the ideas will come from everyone! 

Celebrate the Past

We musn't forget the past that helped inspire the future! (even if we make a few tweaks along the way...) If you don't know where you came from, you don't know where you're going...

Everyone has a Stake

Everyone has a stake in the community, and everyone has a stake in the future. There will be more ways than one to own a piece of it!

Building upon the story of Wildwood, New Jersey...

ROADMAP (TO THE SKY WITH PIE?)

All the "big ideas" (some bigger than others) on our drawing board as of now (in no particular order, yet). Some slightly more far-fetched than others, but nothing beyond the realm of possibility. After all, if you can dream it, you can do it, right? 

DOO WOP "DREAMERS & DOERS" CONFERENCE

bringing designers, dreamers, doers, developers, day-trippers, and denizens together to imagine a better future (and build it together...)

DOO WOP SOCIAL & CREATOR COMMUNITY

there's been a whole lotta conversation over the years, and what better way to start building a better tomorrow than to use the latest tools & technologies to build a next-generation "Web3" digital community of people who dream of that better tomorrow... on their own terms, of course.   we'll start by inviting all those who contributed in the past, but this time, everyone truly "owns" their own ideas, and their opportunity to bring those ideas to life...

DOO WOP IN THE METAVERSE - VIRTUAL RESORT DEVELOPMENT

the spirit of Doo Wop need not any longer be limited to any particular geographical or physical boundaries (nor unfavorable "IRL" real estate markets) - there's a practically infinite "meta" universe out there in which to start building & testing that better, brighter, (and more fun!) tomorrow we all dream of, and hope to bring IRL someday...

AUGMENTED REALITY EXPERIENCES IN THE WILDWOOD, NJ "DOO WOP DISTRICT"

real world got you down? bored by just "what is"? especially in those places where once bright & colorful Doo Wop Motels were replaced with things more drab & dreary? by partnering with innovative technology providers & platforms, geolocation services, and "digital landowners", we can bring back the spirit and imagery of Doo Wop in some of the very same places where it all began... it's a history of the future! or is it the future of history??

RETAIL GIFTS & MERCHANDISE

art, apparel, food, gifts, games, toys - there's no shortage of things the denizens of Doowopolis will make - and others may take!

HOTEL, RESORT, ENTERTAINMENT LICENSING

the spirit of Doo Wop need not be limited to any particular geographical boundaries in New Jersey (or anywhere else, for that matter). by partnering with hotel/motel operators and other property owners, operators, and developers all over the world, we can bring the spirit of Doo Wop (and all its fun & fantasy!) to all the people & places who want it... after all, the denizens of Doowopolis tend to be a "borderless" bunch, especially when they're dreaming of far-away places...

SUPPORT DOO WOP HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN WILDWOOD, NJ

commercializing the spirit of Doo Wop (and DooWopolis) for the benefit of all its denizens offers the opportunity (we hope) for profit & prosperity - a prosperity that's meant to be shared with everyone who contributes to its development and success. our hope is to share a percentage of proceeds from the various commercial activities of Doowopolis (retail sales, hotel licensing, resort revenues, etc...) to help provide financial assistance to operators of original, historic Doo Wop Motels (and other related landmark businesses) in the cradle of Doo Wop - Wildwood, New Jersey - as well as donating to the non-profit Doo Wop Preservation League which helps advocate for local historic preservation, and operates the local Doo Wop Experience Museum

DOO WOP "DOORS TO VACATION" NFT COLLECTION

when one door closes, another one opens... in this case, opening doors to all sorts of vacation possibilities...

$DOOWOP: A CURRENCY & MARKETPLACE BACKED BY HARD WORK & BIG DREAMS

...or said differently, capturing and deploying the *value* of old-fashioned working & middle-class American *values* (that is, the hard-working, big-dreaming values that built Doowopolis in the first place) but with a modern spin... our goal is to build a marketplace of real goods & services where real work, effort, creativity, and contribution (from skilled labor & trades, to artistic & creative output, to all kinds of professional services, to the most random of "odd jobs"...) can be exchanged for experiential, entertainment, leisure, lodging, and other retail, hospitality, and consumer products (from unique resort & vacation experiences, to one-of-a-kind gifts & merchandise for your family & friends...)  there's just one catch:  no "centrally-planned" inflation, money printing, or bailouts to take the place of real creativity, real ingenuity, and real hard work;  no "central authority" interfering with the goals & plans of real small business owners & entrepreneurs in their own communities, distorting free markets & local economies, devaluing your life's labors, and pricing you out of the world you dreamed of and worked hard for.  instead, everyone will have an equal opportunity to create, contribute, earn, and enjoy - on their own terms.  the economy of Doowopolis is simply based on two things - hard work & big dreams - because you can't have one without the other, right?!  

"IRL" RESORT DEVELOPMENT - WITH A HOME BASE IN WILDWOOD, NJ?

the ultimate dream is to finance the design & development of brand-spankin'-new hotel & resort experiences all over the world (including, hopefully, right here in Wildwood, New Jersey for starters - where the story of Doo Wop began) built in the image of Doo Wop's pop-culture past, present, and future.
