Monkey Junction is a dynamic residential neighborhood in Wilmington, NC. The area gets its unique name from the old filling station on Carolina Beach road that kept several live monkeys to attract and interest customers. The bus drivers that drove the route to Carolina Beach would announce “Next stop, Monkey Junction” when nearing the area, and the name stuck. Today, Monkey Junction is a lovely residential area, full of charming neighborhoods and terrific schools. The area begins south of Shipyard Boulevard and extends all the way down Carolina Beach road towards Pleasure Island. Residents love how central Monkey Junction is—it’s pretty much smack dab in the middle of Wilmington, NC, with Historic Downtown just a few miles west, and Carolina Beach and Kure Beach a short drive south. What more could you want?
