Atlantic City | New casino will be beach themed

That makes sense I guess.  If you’re going to have a casino on the beach, you might as well make it beach themed.  Or even better, “beach house” themed.
In this , Pinnacle Entertainment discussed their plans for their yet unnamed $1.5 to $2.0 billion Atlantic City resort casino that has been on hold since February because […]

Atlantic City | Non-gaming hotels

Here is an article about non-gaming hotels being built in Atlantic City.  The article talks in some detail about the Chelsea Hotel which Ive mentioned before. 

Atlantic City | Water Club article

Here is a great article about the new Borgata Water Club from CasinoConnection.com.

Atlantic City | Borgata’s Water Club Opens

If youve been reading this blog for a while, you’ve probably figured out that Atlantic City is not one of my favorite places. However, I really did love the Borgata that MGM Mirage and Boyd Gaming built a few years ago, and now it looks like they’ve hit another home run with their Water […]

Atlantic City | Sneak peak at Borgata’s Water Club

From GlobalCasinoBOOM.Com | A lucky couple got to stay at The Water Club at the Borgata.  They came away

Atlantic City | MGM retains Marina District land

From GlobalCasinoBOOM.com | I didnt even realize it, but MGM has been fighting over a 14 acre piece of waterfront land in AC’s Marina area for the past several years. It was MGM’s land, they had agreed to sell it, then maybe backed out of it, were sued, and now have finally

Atlantic City | Margaritaville casino coming

I try to cover mostly the new, exciting casinos and markets, so I debated on whether or not to include this one.  Is an old casino in a declining market new if it gets bought and rebranded.  I spent way too much time thinking about this, so figured I’d include it.
Trump, which owns three casinos […]

Atlantic City | Four quickies

A burst of recent articles on Atlantic City I thought worth mentioning:

Too bad casinos arent like wine and get better with age | 30 years ago, the dice started rolling in Atlantic City
Stay low and watch for stray bullets

Atlantic City | Pinnacle’s plan for A.C.

Call this Pinnacle part II. Here is the company’s update on the $1.5 to 2.0 billion casino project they hope to build in A.C.:
“Frankly, we’ll see if it even makes sense to go ahead in Atlantic City,” Lee said in a conference call to discuss first-quarter earnings. He said that determination is still a […]

Atlantic City | Casino BUST

By now everyone has seen that the historic (if casinos can be historic) Tropicana has gone bankrupt.  Let this be a reminder that not all casinos BOOM.  Some actually go BUST.
The Tropicana is still making money, but its problem is that it is unable to service the interest payments on its massive debt load.  Dont worry […]

Atlantic City | The Chelsea Hotel to open

Whats this? Another hotel without a casino? Just a few days ago I wrote about this happening in Vegas, and now AC. This one is combining two old hotels on the boardwalk to form a new 330 room boutique hotel called The Chelsea. Also, its being done by one of the two guys from the […]

The Water Club, A Signature Hotel By Borgata, a joint venture between Boyd Gaming and MGM MIRAGE , began accepting hotel reservations today. The $400 million boutique-lifestyle hotel, which will open this June, will feature 800 guestrooms and suites.
“We’re excited to announce this key milestone for The Water Club, bringing this unique hotel experience one […]

Atlantic City | Atlantic Beach Resort & Casino

The more the merrier. Thats my opinion when it comes to Atlantic City. More hotels, more convention and conference space, more shopping, more restaurants and nightclubs, and more casinos. AC will never be Vegas, but the more it tries the better off it will be.
A casino development group that has been quiet about its […]

Atlantic City could ban smoking in casinos

Things aint easin in Atlantic City.  First the new competition in neighboring states. Then the 75% smoking ban. Then an economic recession. Now this:
Atlantic City backs smoking ban on 100 percent of casino floors
Stuff like this certaintly doesnt help those thinking about build new projects in this town.

More land in AC could be zoned for gaming

There’s been alot of talk in AC over the years, but things move slow. As if Bader Field didnt have enough potential to reshape the city, a new plot of land is being discussed. Here are a few snippets from an article that should be read:
City officials shaping the resort’s new master plan are considering […]
