The Towne Park Motel stood in the 800 block of Market Street in Camden NJ. Built after World War II, its business declined as Camden’s economy fell off. By the early 1990s it had devolved into a rooming house, inhabited mostly by junkies, prostitutes, and other undesirables. It was razed early in the decade.
