I'm a New Yorker, so my summer weekends are usually chock full of trying the latest restaurants, hitting the beach, and taking strolls in the park right within my own vibrant city. However, this summer I decided to venture a little further from home and explore a beachside escape a few hours away: Atlantic City, New Jersey. I've been to Atlantic City just once before, to attend a concert at Ocean Casino Resort in Ovation Hall.
Ocean Casino Resort represents a shift in Atlantic City's identity, transitioning from a once run-down destination to a sophisticated and upscale locale catering to luxury-seeking visitors.
