In the 19th century, Absecon Island's Margate was known as South Atlantic City. Less than 30 years later, the city was rechristened after England's seaside town, Margate. Today it's better known as the home of Lucy the Elephant, six stories high and more than 100 years old. These three homes demonstrate the extent to which luxury real estate rules the seaside and the bayside.
