For more than a century, the seaside town of Atlantic City, NJ has drawn summer visitors to the Boardwalk, the beach, and the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1976, a Casino Gambling Referendum was passed. Old Atlantic City hotels were revived and large new ones built along the Boardwalk and the nearby Atlantic City Marina, adding gaming to the area's vacation activities.
