Lighthouse Row Phase II Is Coming — The Inlet Momentum Keeps Rolling
Hey Folks,
If you’ve driven through the Inlet lately, you can feel it. There’s energy in the air. What started with mini golf and a bold vision is now turning into something much bigger — and I love seeing this kind of investment right here at the Shore.
Lighthouse Row is officially moving into Phase II.
After the success of the original Lighthouse Row homes and North Beach Mini Golf, seven more 5-bedroom homes are about to break ground between Vermont Ave and New Hampshire Ave. Construction is set to start next month, and this next chapter keeps building on the momentum we’ve been watching unfold in the Inlet.
Developer Keith Groff and Daniel Fast LLC are leading the charge again, with planning and engineering by MPMB Developers. This isn’t talk — this is boots on the ground, multi-million-dollar investment right here in Atlantic City.
Keith told me this next phase is about building on what worked — quality homes, smart design, and creating something that fits the neighborhood while raising the standard. And if you’ve seen Phase I lit up at sunset with the skyline behind it, you know exactly what he means.
What I like most? It’s happening steps from North Beach Mini Golf and right near Altman Park — which just got upgrades including new pickleball courts and park improvements. That whole pocket of the Inlet is starting to feel like its own little neighborhood destination.
And this is all part of something bigger.
The Inlet Community Development Corporation is investing about $1 million a year back into the neighborhood — small business incentives, infrastructure improvements, home ownership programs, and more. Add in other proposed housing developments nearby, and you can see the long-term vision taking shape.
This is how you build community. One project at a time.
For anyone who’s always asking me about positive growth stories or Things to do in Atlantic City — this is part of that bigger picture. New homes mean new neighbors. New neighbors mean new businesses. And that means more reasons to spend a weekend in AC, stay overnight, and explore everything the Shore has to offer.
I’m proud to see local developers believing in Atlantic City like this. The Inlet has history. Now it’s building its future.
I’ll keep you posted as Phase II breaks ground — and I’ll have more from Keith soon.
Live-Work-Play-AC!
See you on the 48

Thanks for the updates! Can’t wait to see this next chapter being built.
Good to know! Can’t wait to see the new development.
As the story and movie said Field of Dreams, ” build it, they will come ” .
This is good stuff! I would love to move back home again.
My wife and I we use to own a house at the inlet and sold the home and moved to the EHT after twenty years sold the house in EHT and come back to A C. It takes us a few years to get another house in Atlantic City and we just moved back to the inlet. We love AC and boardwalk this is a great news.
