Atlantic City could soon see those plans of an indoor waterpark at the North end of the boardwalk become a reality if the CRDA gives them the green light.
At a meeting Tuesday, CRDA approved several measures that will eventually impact Atlantic City's Tourism District, including more development at Stockton’s Atlantic City campus and the proposed waterpark at Showboat.
We originally thought that Stockton University was going to operate an island based campus and private hotel at the property formerly known as Showboat. That operation was delayed due to a 1988 covenant, which required the property to operate as a casino. Today, things could get even more interesting.
As a bankruptcy court judge approved the sale of Revel to a Florida real estate developer, Stockton University students protested in front of its neighbor over Trump Entertainment's disapproval of turning Showboat into a college campus.
Harry Hurley has learned and confirmed that Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort employees have received amended federal WARN notices and the casino could close in December.
