Have you seen HBO‘s hit show, the "Boardwalk Empire"? I personally love the era it is set in, the 1920s. If you also do, you will love this news. Atlantic City Resorts will adopt a Boardwalk Empire-like theme for their casino by December this year.
The venue is located in the exact same spot, which was once the boardwalk. Previous owners couldn’t catch up with the competition, they were failing to pay the mortgage and had to sell the venue, which was quickly bought by Morris Bailey and Dennis Gomes, who had great plans in mind for the casino, which is currently under construction.
This is the look you can expect
The venue was built in the 20’s, so the decoration won’t be much of a worry for the interior designers. Gomez said the plan is to dress the dealers, the cocktail waitresses and bellhops in 1920’s period costumes. To enhance the atmosphere, they intend to serve drinks of the specific area, and play music that was played at the time. Of course the alcohol ban is not included.
The resort is said to be ready and open to guests this December, as soon as the sale of the resort is approved by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission. I think themed casinos are fun, I’m eager to visit Atlantic City to finally try one casino like that. Also, if you are interested in the series, here’s its own site at HBO.com. Do you have a favourite themed casino? If you do, please tell me in the comments section below.
