Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small said this morning that he will be meeting today with Bart Blatstein, owner of Showboat, about a proposed water park in the city.
In the wake of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Ocean Resort, Bart Blatstein, the owner of Showboat Hotel, is moving forward with plans to bring back gambling back to the establishment.
A once bustling, Mardi Gras-themed hotel-casino in Atlantic City, which is still trying to establish itself as a hotel (minus the casino), has a new idea: apartments.
The closure of four Atlantic City casinos in 2014 has led to better gaming revenues for most of the remaining eight, but it may have also pushed some gamblers out of the state for good.
