Atlantic City Overview

One of America's oldest seaside resorts, Atlantic City is most famous these days as a weekend gambler's mecca. It's the East Coast's answer to Las Vegas, and home to many of the same names: Caesars, Bally's, Sands, the Tropicana. Tourists come by the millions (more than 35 million of them, to be exact) to try their luck at the city's 12 casinos, 9 of which line the world's first oceanfront boardwalk, opened in 1870. The city itself began life in 1854 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2004 with a lot of fanfare. Read More
