Upcoming Local Attraction Will Make History

Things are about to get a lot more fun in South Jersey.....

Are you ready for a 220 ft Ferris Wheel?

Well get ready, because it's set to be built next to the Steel pier in Atlantic City.

According to NBC 40, 'The wheel will feature 40, climate-controlled gondolas that can hold 6 to 10 people inside for lunch, drinks, or even business meetings - all while taking in views of the incredible coastline of Atlantic City.'

The wheel is expected to be built by early 2014.  It will also be the largest observation wheel in the United States....that is until a larger one is built in Las Vegas.
