Indawo eyayisaziwa ngokuba yiRevel Casino-Hotel, ngoku eyiPolo North, umzekelo. Esona sakhiwo siphakamileyo sesibini kurhulumente, sakhiwa nge-2.4 yezigidigidi zeedola saza sathengiswa kwifandesi yokuhlawula amatyala kwiveki ephelileyo ngezigidi ezingama-82 zeedola. Kwaye kulo mbhalouMvulokusasa, isakhiwo simnyama, amandla aso anqunyulwe ngenxa yengxabano nenkampani engumnini wesityalo esizimeleyo esizimeleyo esibonelela ngejusi kulwakhiwo. Esi sakhiwo ngoku sinomngcipheko kubacimi-mlilo ukuba kungaphuma umlilo kungabikho mngcipheko kubakhweli beenqwelomoya abasondela kwisikhululo senqwelomoya iAtlantic City ebusuku.
Konke kuneLizwe lesiThathu elinjalo. (Kwaye andizukungena kugqogqo lwewebhusayithi yeCasino Reinvestment Development kwimpelaveki- iphepha eliqhelekileyo lasekhaya latshintshwa ngokufutshane siscreen esimnyama esiphakamisa i-jihad. Ngokwenyani.)
Kodwa kwanele. Pha are izinto ezintle ezenzekayo kwiAtlantic City.
Kule veki, umzekelo, i-86,000-square-foot-Bass Pro Shops ivenkile enkulu iyavula. Indawo inkulu kwaye ihambelana ngokugqibeleleyo kubemi beendwendwe zeAtlantic City.
Phezulu kwiBhodiwalk, kanye ecaleni kwendawo enekonsathi yeBhodiwalk Hall ephumelele kakhulu, intsimbi inyuka ibhloko epheleleyo yeevenkile ezakhiwa nguBruce E. Toll.
Kancinci emazantsi, kwicandelo lesixeko laseChelsea, umsebenzi uqhubeka kakuhle liQela loPhuhliso lwe-RPM yaseMontclair, eguqula ikhaya labongikazi elinabantu abaninzi ixesha elide ngaphandle kolwandle kunye neBhodiwalk ibe ziiflethi ezingama-58.
Kukho i-crane enkulu ehleli elunxwemeni phambi kweTropicana, iphakamisa iirigging eziza kubamba umboniso wokukhanya oguqukayo omtsha kwifadesi yesakhiwo.
Kwaye ii-pubs ezincinci ezipholileyo, iiklabhu kunye neeresityu zibonakala ngathi ziyavela kuso sonke isixeko- Inkampani yeBhotile yeAtlantic, Igumbi le-Iron, iVagabond, iWingcraft, iBarbard Bar kunye neGrill. Jonga iposti ka-Lauren Moon ka-Agasti 2014- kunye nezimvo-kuye imvbanyaz Ibhlog http://mindovermoon.com/?p=403 . ) ukufumana incasa yeli cala lesiXeko iAtlantic. Abantu abakwiminyaka yakhe bayayifumana- kwaye ziindawo zentengiso ezijolise kuzo kakhulu esixekweni.
Qaphela ukuba uphuhliso kunye nezinto ezintsha endizikhankanyileyo ngasentla ziyinyani, ngensimbi emhlabeni, ulwakhiwo luqhubeka kunye nokuvulwa kweengcango zangaphambili. Ngokubanzi ndiyasiphepha isikolo esihle sokucwangciswa-ezo zinto zinikezelo zihle zeeprojekthi ezingakhange zibonakale zivela emhlabeni. Kodwa umphuhlisi weenkululeko zaseMantla uBart Blatstein kufanele ukuba akhwaze ngezicwangciso zakhe zokuguqula iiPier Shops eKesareya zibe yindawo yezigidi zokuzonwabisa eyi- $ 50 yezigidi ebizwa ngokuba yiBala lokuDlala. Imifanekiso emihle ecaleni, iBlatstein yeyona nto iyiyo. Izicwangciso zakhe zijolise kwinto engama-20 ukuya kwintengiso ye-40 esele ithande i-AC, kwaye unerekhodi lokuguqula iipropathi zoxinzelelo.
Ndiqhuba iBhodiwalk rhoqo. Kwaye ndiyacotha, ngenene. Oko kundinika ixesha elininzi lokuba ndibone ukuba kuqhubeka ntoni, kwaye ndiyakwenza umkhwa ukubandakanya abakhenkethi. Elinye ilanga, isibhakabhaka esiluhlaza, usuku oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kwiveki ephelileyo, ndikhwaze kwisibini esityeleleyo ngokucacileyo njengoko bendikhangelwa, Ayisiyondawo imbi leyo, akunjalo? Yaphendula le ntokazi, Uyahlekisa? Sinexesha elimnandi. Intle.
Inokuba ngu… ingaba…
