They should convert the (closed) hotels into elderly housing/nursing homes. then the elderly can gamble daily without having to take a bus ride. If you could siphon off their SS checks, Atlantic City would be rolling in money. Face it, young people do not gamble in casinos-this place will die unless you move the elderly gamblers in.
Casinos will always be in Atlantic City but the future of Atlantic City relies on diversifying the economy of Atlantic City. The market mix in Atlantic City was too limited to sales from the games and did not take into account the expanding gaming markets in nearby states. Greed and lack of vision by management and corruption by politicians allowed what has led to the catastrophic loss of jobs in Atlantic City. Atlantic City will be back and better than ever but it will amass many casualties along the way, which was avoidable. If the casinos gave back to the city that hosted them this wouldn't have panned out to be such a blow to the south jersey residents and economy. Bringing year around business like Stockton College, maybe the tech industry and upping offers in non-gaming entertainment, dining etc. will be the future of Atlantic City and create a more stable economy.
First started with Sands - tour bus from D.C. Union Station. Got hooked with a $17,000 blackjack win . . . was hooked and traveled to Resorts, next up the Boardwalk, north. Worked my way up to the Showboat, however . . . being that I was not rated platinum, couldn't take the complementary shuttle to other Ceasar's properties. Was a long march, over to Harrahs. Now, all players get complimentary rides, to all Ceasar's properties. And I, now game at the Ceasars property in Baltimore, adjacent to the stadium. 🎭 💀 😬 😎
Altantic City has the worst Marketing and Ads across the country if they even have on air commercial ads. I live in Midwest and no one knows about Atlantic city unless you grew up playing poker with your family or got lucky and seen rounders. Reason why they have no success is all due to the fact of the marker behind the casino life style on the east coast. Las Vegas is all anyone knows so if you don't promote for tourist then why are you open ? Cause if you can't even expand your reach to Midwest and people rather fly to Vegas is saying something
Interesting points. I was reading that Morgan Stanley were originally 90% stakeholders in Revel and then pulled out leaving the State of NJ to bail out the stalled project. Looks like Chris Christie didn't read those reports
Teh goat I was going to attempt to provide an answer for you but ***** seems to have it down already. There's a bit more info from our US office here ► www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/09/trump-casinos-atlantic-city-bankruptcy
if you do not correct the crime ridden area around the casino's you will not achieve anything. the boardwalk is dangerous at night. how many people who want to go to another casino at night will not walk to it even if its a 5min walk. you now have upstate ny, pennsylvania, maryland, with casino's and with much better hotels attached to them. a/c is dead put a fork in it.
good always triumphs over evil and it's takes decades sometimes centuries for this to transpire but Atlanitc City has always operated under the shadow of evil and now good is washing away the sin.I hope the every casino goes under *And it will*

the casinos need to pull together and buy trains from new York philly and Baltimore..$49 roundtrip ticket
Just like vegas a city with casinos need consistant upgrades, the resorts of atlantic should look into bigger resorts like mgm/mirage resorts.

Blew my mother's inheritance at Atlantic City Casinos . . . worked my way down the strip. 😱🎱🌵
Is the drop in figures isolated to AC only?
Is Vegas having a similar drop in their casinos?
