THE DATE IS Sept. 16, 2010. At Caesars Hotel & Casino and the private event space One Atlantic, workers are busily milling about like bees, making preparations for one of the biggest events to hit Atlantic City in years. Tonight will mark the premiere party for the new Martin Scorcese- produced HBO series Boardwalk Empire, and stars such as Michael Pitt, Kelly Macdonald and Dabney Coleman (not to mention writer/executive producer Terence Winter, known for his work on The Sopranos) will soon be rubbing elbows with locals and partying into the wee hours of the morning. The city known for its ad campaign slogan, “Always Turned On,” is buzzing with excitement, clearly eager for its moment in the spotlight. Based on Nelson Johnson’s book, Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption Of Atlantic City, the series offers a look at the historic partnership between the area’s local politicians and racketeers. The story primarily focuses on crime boss Enoch “Nucky” Johnson (played pitch-perfectly by Steve Buscemi), whose machinations in Atlantic City during Prohibition helped transformed the city from a quaint seaside health resort into an international gambling and entertainment mecca where practically anything was permissible. The show helps to reinforce the notion that, while there may be many US cities with legalized casi- nos and gambling, few have the rich, colorful history that still lives and breathes in Atlantic City today. Set on the New Jersey shore between the Atlantic Ocean and marsh- lands, Atlantic City was incorporated in 1854, when train service began linking the area with Philadelphia. One of its signature attractions, the Boardwalk, was originally constructed in 1870 to help hotel owners keep sand out of their lobbies. The first road from the mainland was completed in 1870 after 17 years of construction, and by 1878, Atlantic City had become such a popular tourist destination that one railroad line would no longer suffice and the Narrow Gauge Line to Philadelphia was soon constructed. Thanks to tycoons like Johnson, development in the area surged in the early 20th century, making Atlantic City the hip, happening hotspot for the Hollywood elite to hang out. A cornucopia of luxury hotels (including the Chalfonte Hotel and Haddon Hall, which eventually became Resorts International Hotel & Casino, the city’s first legal casino) made the area such a model of using property ownership to achieve great wealth, that Atlantic City later served as the inspiration for the classic board game Mo- nopoly, using real-life street names (Boardwalk, Park Place, Baltic Ave) and property values based on the area. Steel Pier, known as “The Showplace of the Nation,” attracted color- 56 ful acts ranging from high-diving horses to water-skiing canine Rex the CONVENTION & VISITORS BUREAU PHOTO COURTESY OF THE ATLANTIC AAtlantictlantic CityCity AdvertorialAdvertorial pp054-077.indd054-077.indd 5656 111/11/20101/11/2010 112:422:42 AAtlantictlantic CityCity AdvertorialAdvertorial pp054-077.indd054-077.indd 5757 111/11/20101/11/2010 112:422:42 PROMOTION: ATLANTIC CITY WEEKEND TO REMEMBER FLYAWAY!

The combined forces of increased competition and a soft economy recast Atlantic City’s casino industry as four of its 12 casinos closed and a significant number of workers lost their jobs. It was, in a word, painful. The closure of the Atlantic Club, Showboat, Revel and Trump Plaza was a wakeup call to the industry, the city and the state and it kick- started efforts to broaden Atlantic City’s base of attractions and create new and different reasons for people to visit. In these difficult economic times, the Commission has taken steps internally to reduce costs and expenses without cutting our services, undermining our statutory responsibilities or compromising the state’s strict licensing standards.

  • Boardwalk Walking Tour Podcast Script/ Web
    Boardwalk Walking Tour Podcast Script/ Web Overview Welcome to Atlantic City, the East Coast destination that is “Always Turned On.” Our tour runs along the Boardwalk and as we travel you will get a crash course in Atlantic City history and attractions. This walking tour begins at the north end of the Boardwalk at New Jersey Avenue and is approximately two miles in length. At different times, to help orient you on the tour, we will be referring to one side of the Boardwalk as the ocean side, and the other as the street side. With that said, let’s begin our tour… In the early 1600’s the entire area we now call Atlantic City was a regular hunting and fishing spot for the Lenni Lenape Indians who made the long journey from Philadelphia and Delaware, to the saltiness of the sea. The Boardwalk itself was developed in 1870 as a temporary structure to keep sand off of the hotel carpets by hotel owner Jacob Keim and railroad conductor Alexander Boardman. Later, in 1890 the “main street” of Atlantic City was made a permanent structure measuring four miles long and 24-feet wide. Today’s Boardwalk is about three times the original size, and features thousands of two-by-fours made out of Bethabara hardwood from Brazil and Longleaf Yellow Southern Pine. As we travel the Boardwalk you will notice the century-old AC tradition, rolling chairs. These rolling chairs debuted on the Boardwalk in 1887, imported from the Philadelphia Centennial of 1876, and have been the most popular mode of transportation ever since.
