Atlantic City is clearly not what it once was. Atlantic City has not experienced a rebirth as a result of the introduction of gambling as was hoped (nor has Camden with the battleship New Jersey plus an aquarium or Newark with both a state of the art indoor arena for hockey/basketball/concerts and a gorgeous Performing Arts Center). Nonetheless, Atlantic City - and the surrounding areas, still has much to offer including the remaining casinos, the beaches and boardwalks. We just had our 50th high school reunion over two days in AC for 150+ people at Resorts. All of us had a terrific time. My wife and I finally made a little side trip to see Lucy in Margate and the Mammal Rescue Center in Brigantine (an island city in Atlantic County). AC is accessible from NYC, closer to Philadelphia, and nearby to most of NJ. Hopefully it will someday regain more of its former glory.
