( the other Atlantic City ) close to 20 years!
I must admit I visit Atlantic City, often in the summer, but I have not been to what the locals call This past Memorial Day weekend, my 21 cousins invited me to sit by the pool at The Golden Nugget, which use to be The Trump Marina. The entire city is getting a makeover, it may take some time, but the city is off to a good start. which is chapter 11! But let me say this one thing about Atlantic City, it was America's playground for almost a 100 years before any old lady cashed in a $1.00 at a penny slot machine, so let's not panic DoAC, because I have good news! Since I left in 1999, there has been another phase in my hometown of A.C. Atlantic City, owning three major casinos in Atlantic City, Trump Marina, Trump Plaza and the world-famous Trump Taj Mahal. Then, of course, the year around gambling city/resort with 15 casinos. Like the family beach resort from Memorial Day to Labor Day, then a 6-month season resort with just a few casinos like Resorts, Bally's and Caesars which was the most popular ones at the time. Growing up in Atlantic City New Jersey, aka The Jersey Shore, in the 70's 80's and 90's I have seen Atlantic City, go through every phase.
